You work as an Office Assistant for InfoTech Inc. You have created a presentation through
PowerPoint 2010. You have added a movie file named movie.aiff to your presentation. During the
presentation of slides, your movie plays as a black rectangle. Which of the following is the issue?
A.
The movie is captioned or subtitled.
B.
.aiff is not a compatible file format.
C.
It is due to incompatible hardware acceleration.
D.
The path name to the linked movie file exceeds 128 characters.
Explanation:
If your computer does not have compatible hardware acceleration for the presentation, then the
movie will play as a black rectangle. The Hardware Acceleration setting can be changed by using
Control Panel.
Answer option D is incorrect. If the path name of the movie file exceeds 128 characters, then Office
PowerPoint 2010 will not be able to find and play the file. Therefore, in such a scenario, the issue of
the movie playing as a black rectangle does not even arise.
Answer option A is incorrect. If the movie used in the presentation is captioned or subtitled, then
PowerPoint 2010 will not be able to play it.
Answer option B is incorrect. The .aiff format, also known as Audio Interchange File Format, is a
compatible file format with PowerPoint 2010 File Format. The .aiff format was originally used on
Apple and Silicon Graphics (SGI) computers.
