Can't Add video or audio to premade presentation
Describe the bug Can't Add video or audio to premade presentations
To Reproduce This is my code, I load a PowerPoint presentation from disk and make text changes to the slide after I call these methods to add audio/video.
public void AddVideoToPresentation(PresentationDocument presentationDocument, string audioFilePath)
{
int PicID = 915;
PresentationPart presentationPart = presentationDocument.PresentationPart;
var slideCount = presentationPart.Presentation.SlideIdList.Count();
var videoEmbedId = string.Format("audioId{0}{1}", slideCount, PicID++);
var mediaEmbedId = string.Format("medId{0}{1}", slideCount, PicID++);
SlidePart slidepart = presentationDocument.PresentationPart.SlideParts.LastOrDefault();
MediaDataPart mediaDataPart1 = presentationDocument.CreateMediaDataPart("audio/mp3", ".mp3");
System.IO.Stream mediaDataPart1Stream = File.OpenRead(audioFilePath);
mediaDataPart1.FeedData(mediaDataPart1Stream);
mediaDataPart1Stream.Close();
slidepart.AddAudioReferenceRelationship(mediaDataPart1, videoEmbedId);
slidepart.AddMediaReferenceRelationship(mediaDataPart1, mediaEmbedId);
slidepart.Slide.Save();
AddVid(presentationDocument);
}
public void AddVid(PresentationDocument presentationDocument)
{
PresentationPart presentationPart = presentationDocument.PresentationPart;
SlidePart slidepart = presentationDocument.PresentationPart.AddNewPart<SlidePart>("rxId3");
MediaDataPart mediaDataPart1 = presentationDocument.CreateMediaDataPart("video/mp4", ".mp4");
System.IO.Stream mediaDataPart1Stream = System.IO.File.Open(@"D:\samplevideo.mp4", System.IO.FileMode.Open);
mediaDataPart1.FeedData(mediaDataPart1Stream);
mediaDataPart1Stream.Close();
slidepart.AddMediaReferenceRelationship(mediaDataPart1, "rxId2");
slidepart.AddVideoReferenceRelationship(mediaDataPart1, "rxId1");
}
Observed behavior No Video or audio embedded in the presentation
Expected behavior Play audio after slide transition

Hi @yswenli Please see the sample code that adds video and audio. Code requires video, audio and picture path to be changed to match files path on your environment. The code has been produced and tested on the latest Open XML SDK 3.2.0 I see you are still using older version 2.2.0 so please update to the 3.2.0 if possible before testing the sample. Please let me know how it works for you. Thanks

Is there some chance to automatically start playing the audio when the slide is presented?
Hi @steamonimo the auto play could be done with use of timing. Added auto play for both audio and video

Thanks
Thank you very much! But there is one catch with your code.
It saves the media at root\media in the resulting ZIP.
However, if you save the resulting file in PowerPoint it takes the mp3 from root\media and copies them to root\ppt\media and then there is still an old copy remaining in root\media. In the copy process PowerPoint renames all relation IDs that pointed to the previous location. If you then reopen this file again with your code it will again save to root\media.
So far this does not cause issues but after operating multiple times on the PowerPoint file it will contain multiple copies of the same MP3 file.
Hi @steamonimo I see that PPT removes old mp3/mp4 files whenever saving directly from PPT. see the attached screenshot (Red is removed and green is added)
We consider this as answered. Closing this issue
Three problems still remain:
- Office 365 will not cleanup root\media - in contrast to what you are experiencing
- Opening the old 2006 scheme with Office 365, modifying and saving afterwards will result in a file that does not play automatically anymore (just load edit save and reload > audio does not play).
- In 2014 scheme files converted with Office 365 I had to manually remove all objects of type AlternateContent with slidePart.Slide.Descendants to prevent that multiple instances of transition elements will be created when reprocessing the file. The under the hood transformation by Office 365 really become messy.
Hi @steamonimo thank you for your input on this. For the first bullet point I am also using Office 365 and see it removed additionally we tested it internally on 2 different machines and we see the old files removed. Possibly can you share your file sample so we can investigate.? For the second bullet can you share sample file so I can test and adjust code where possible. Could you explain bit more on last bullet what exactly are you doing (repro steps) and share the sample file as well. Thanks
Hi @steamonimo I didn't receive any email from you.
Thanks for letting me know. I tried again without attachments...
@steamonimo I have it now. Will update you once will have an update on it. Thanks
Hi @steamonimo I see the working file you have provided in the email narrate_working_EN.pptx file has errors related to the slide transition and this is causing the issue later when you save in PPT. As transition is something different to audio and video could you please open new issue as we don't want to mix multiple issues under one thread to avoid confusion and I will take it from there. Thanks
