[AG-TECH] PPT in a vic window

[Tom Coffin]

we have been converting rgb into video and sending that into 
vic windows - it's really great if the far side doesn't grok
dppt or needs to know what slide they should be on locally.
The image quality though is quite poor. (especially those ever
so important 8pt font text slides were only a paragraph of verbose 
explanation will cover a subject ;)
