Is it possible to export PPTX to mp4?
If not is there a way to have our slide transitions display when exporting as a GIF?
@bowespublishing,
Thank you for your questions. Unfortunately, Aspose.Slides cannot convert presentations to video yet. I’ve added a ticket with ID SLIDESPYNET-31 to our issue tracking system. Our development team is working on this feature. You will be notified when the issue is resolved.
It would be great if you could also specify the OS version your app is running on.
You can convert a presentation to GIF with slide transitions as shown below:
import aspose.slides as slides
import aspose.pydrawing as drawing
presentation = slides.Presentation("example.pptx")
options = slides.export.GifOptions()
options.default_delay = 2000
options.transition_fps = 35
presentation.save("output.gif", slides.export.SaveFormat.GIF, options)
Documents: Convert PowerPoint to Animated GIF
API Reference: GifOptions class
This doesn’t include the slides transitions however. For example if I implement a page curl effect
with slides.Presentation("test.pptx") as presentation:
for index in range(presentation.slides.length):
presentation.slides[index].slide_show_transition.type = slides.slideshow.TransitionType.PAGE_CURL_SINGLE
This isn’t shown in the output GIF
@bowespublishing,
Please check your results using the latest version of Aspose.Slides if it is possible. If the issue persists, please share the following data and information:
- input presentation file
- output GIF file
- OS version where the code was executed
- Aspose.Slides version you used
import aspose.slides as slides
import aspose.pydrawing as drawing
with slides.Presentation("test.pptx") as presentation:
options = slides.export.GifOptions()
options.default_delay = 3000
options.transition_fps = 35
for index in range(presentation.slides.length):
presentation.slides[index].slide_show_transition.type = slides.slideshow.TransitionType.PAGE_CURL_SINGLE
presentation.slides[index].slide_show_transition.advance_after_time = 3000
presentation.save("test2.pptx", slides.export.SaveFormat.PPTX) #Has page turn effect in slideshow
presentation.save("test2.gif", slides.export.SaveFormat.GIF, options) #doesn't have page turn effect
Windows 11
Aspose Slides 22.7

@bowespublishing,
Thank you for the code example and files. I’ve reproduced the problem with the image transition in the generated GIF file and added a ticket with ID SLIDESPYNET-32 to our issue tracking system. We apologize for any inconvenience. Our development team will investigate the case. You will be notified when the issue is resolved.
