Have this ever happened to you? You've created a compelling  PowerPoint slide show with sound tracks and movie clips embedded,  however,you have no choice but attach the huge package in an email to  share it with others (If the file is larger than 2M, it is always unable  to be sent by email), or save it in a flash drive and deliver the hard  copy. The problem is, what if the recipients do not have computer or it  is not convenient to use a computer?
I'll never forget those awkward moments I had in the past:
I  created a PowerPoint photo slide show with engaging video and audio,  but when I showed it to others on another computer, I found it was too  slow to open the big PowerPoint file, and the attached media files can  not be properly played during the presentation.
When I was ready to send it to my friends, I found some of my friends have no computer to view the slide show. What a pity that I have no way to send it to them! What's more, my father almost hadn't used computer, how can I get a clue to enable him to view my slide show?

Needless  to say, the effort I spent on the presentations returned nothing to me  but only complaints from audiences, pities of no way to share with  friends, and lost opportunities with the customers if it is a business  presentation.
Is there a way to wipe out these inconveniences?
After making a few searches, I found there are mainly two methods to solve the problem. 
1. Using a screen capture tool to convert PowerPoint slide show to video (Not Recommended)
1. Using a screen capture tool to convert PowerPoint slide show to video (Not Recommended)
By converting PowerPoint slide show to video then burn to DVD, It is free to send the DVD to others without worrying about whether they have PowerPoint viewer or even a computer. We can find a television and a DVD Player almost anywhere to play the presentation DVD. But the resulting DVD generated from video can not be controlled by a DVD remote control like controlling in PowerPoint. I've tried Camtasia studio and some other similar screen capture tools, they all have the same problem.
2. Using a professional PowerPoint to DVD burning tool (Recommended)
A  professional PowerPoint to DVD burning tool can burn PowerPoint to DVD  directly with almost all the PowerPoint slide show elements retained.  Such as internal hyperlinks, slide transitions, animations, video and  audio. You can also generate DVD menus to navigate audiences, and  control the playback such as the slide "Next" and "previous" by a DVD  remote just like you control the slide show playback in PowerPoint. And a  professional PowerPoint to DVD tool mostly includes the function of  converting PowerPoint to video.
So it is better to use a professional PowerPoint to DVD burning tool to burn PowerPoint to DVD.
However  I would like to offer a big thanks to GOATD and Wondershare, as I can  finally created the DVD presentation with flexible DVD menus. I found  with the DVD conversion, the control over menus and end-menus was nice,  as well as scaling the video so that it doesn't lose data from standard  television bleed-over (The 'safe' zone.) So many applications overlook  this aspect and give you a full-screen DVD, with a good portion of your  information/text off the side of the screen. You can either have it  placed directly to DVD, or set up an ISO if you by some chance want to  alter the ISO (or save a backup for repeated copies.)
A terrific  advantage of the program is that it gives me the capability to get my  presentations to those who don't have PowerPoint, or indeed, a computer.  Anyone can view my PowerPoint slide show on any DVD player worldwide  and as I am writing this, the cogs are turning as I contemplate creating  promotional DVDs for my business with this genuinely amazing program.
Although  there is a tutorial can help people burn PowerPoint to DVD with DVD  Presenter step by step, it is nearly no use to me. I can't vouch for  more experienced and seasoned users, but if you, like me, are just  delving into the media frenzy, I'd say definitely give it a try. 
It is simple just like 1-2-3.
