How can I get my Powerpoint videos to play in Keynote?

I just bought a new MacBook Pro which is running Mojave. I had an older MacBook Pro that was running El Capitan. I have several Powerpoint presentations that have .wmv files imbedded in them. With my old Mac, I used Flip4Mac to convert and run the videos. It seems like they don't have any programs to use that allows me to play the ppt videos with Mojave. Does anyone know of anything that i can use that will allow me to play the ppt with videos on Mojave? It would be such a waste of an upgrade if I can't use my new MacBook Pro for what I need it to do. Please help!

MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.14

Hey Jameson,

Thanks for the link. I am able to open PowerPoint in Keynote, however, I am NOT able to play the .wmv files that are embedded in PowerPoint on Keynote using Mojave. I was able to play them with El Capitan by using and add on called Flip4Mac. I was looking for something like that which is compatible with Mojave.

Thank you though.
