[AG-TECH] DPPT (PowerPoint) audio

[He, Yuan]

Even there's soundcard installed, DPPT will not play an audio file. RPPT, on
the other hand, can playback an embedded audio, but it must be set in the
auto-start or timer-triggered mode (so that RPPT can start the playback by
emulating a mouse-click event). The reason for the restriction in either
DPPT or RPPT is because there's no way to detect or control the
play/stop/pause of an embedded media file via PowerPoint OLE/COM interface.
Please correct me if I'm wrong :)
