Mark,
I switched from powerpoint to Keynote and it works much better. For
example, the beginning of the movie runs much more smoothly now. BTW
if it matters I make my movies by compressing images in graphic
converter. About the zoom/stop. You can have one slide of the
initial frame for the still, then go into the zoom movie (there are
scripts to do this) on the next slide. Or you could have it all
timed out in one movie to pause for a certain amount of time in a
particular state.

I'm wondering what software people use to display their pymol-made movies
to best effect. I tried embedding the movies in powerpoint, but I don't
like the performance drop. Running the movies from a movie player like
quicktime just doesn't seem integrated enough if you want to interact with
your movies. I'm picturing a scenario where the movies are seamlessly
embedded in the presentation and scene-changes can be prompted by a
mouseclick. I know I've seen someone do this before, but I don't know
what kind of software they were using. I'd like to start with a still
image, click my mouse have the protein rotate and zoom in on an active
site, wait while I discuss everything important, then move on to something
else when I click the mouse again. In addition, things like labels and
text can be overlaid over the movies and respond to choreographed
mouseclicks as well. Any ideas?
