PPS to XV conversion is the process of transforming a PowerPoint Slide Show file (.pps or .ppsx) into an XV presentation format used by XV-compatible viewers or archival systems. This conversion preserves slide order, timings, and most visual elements while mapping PowerPoint-specific features to the XV format for playback or distribution.

While PPS focuses on presentation content and slides, XV is optimized for video codecs and playback compatibility. Converting PPS to XV bridges the gap between static presentations and dynamic video formats.
Keep individual PPS files under 200–300 MB for smooth upload and processing; very large slide decks with embedded videos should be split when possible.
To preserve quality, export images from PowerPoint at high resolution before conversion or choose the lossless XV quality setting.
For batch conversion, group similar-sized files and run conversions during off-peak hours; use a dedicated batch tool or API to automate multiple PPS-to-XV jobs.
