Help please: Video Editing : Powerpoint to MOV

Hi everybody. I am looking for a piece of software that can do the following for me.

1. Take a power point presentation, (PPTX) and then convert it into an AVI or MOV file for us.

2. There are several such packages that is supposed to work, but we have some complex movies already in the power point (if the slide opens, an embedded movie starts) so for some reason nothing seems to work.

3. The embedded movie is a "small-ish" rectangle in the corner occupying about 1/8 of the screen real-estate. The embedded movie goes from one slide to the next which makes it even more fun.

4. I am hoping that some of you guys could have some experience in solving the above, and if so, could you please post some suggestions on what package to use.

Possible work arounds:
1. When we remove all the video files from the power point presentation, then we can easily create a MOV / AVI file from the PPTX and that works perfectly.

2. We then overlay the movies with the newly created AVI / MOV file. The problem here is that sometimes we have animations (an arrow, star, animation, whatever) moving over the video originally, which is now moved to the back (i.e. it disappears behind the overlayed movie).

3. We are not smart enough, let me rephrase, we don’t have the time to research it, to figure out how to move the star / animation in front of the newly overlayed video, without doing 3 overlays (which starts getting way too complex.)

The other option we have, is we take a video camera, put it on a tri-pod, and record the presentation, but that is so ugly that I would not like anybody to take this recommendation seriously.

Ideally, what we want is the following:
1. A single pass of the Powerpoint, that converts the power point to an AVI/MOV file exactly as the powerpoint was created with the embedded clips coming through correctly.

Of all the packages out there, the most promising one was Moyea PPT to Video Converter (http://www.dvd-ppt-slideshow.com/ppt-to-video/) but it is struggling with the video clips.

The powerpoint is almost 300MB in size so it is a hefty presentation and unfortunately copyrighted so I can not share it with you all to play with.

Any suggestions please

i dont suppose fraps would work skoups??

Never done anything similar but Uncle Google suggests: http://www.smallvideosoft.com/screen-video-capture/

ok let me get this straight, you have a PPTX with embedded MOV/AVI files and you want to overlay animations and or Text etc within the presentation?

If my understanding is correct it would be quicker to create a Adobe After effects project and insert the content in the provided project and add animations from there.

Just a thought... but a bit vague on the exact project here.

A recording software is Camtasia Studios works wonders for training presentations.

If you can bring it to the studio, Edius should be able to pwn it for you np. Will have to be late evening some time though.
