What file types does Scratch accept?

Which file types does Scratch accept? I'm trying to upload a long Google Slides into a sprite, and I don't want to upload them one by one, but every type I have tried (.odp .pdf and .pptx) has not been accepted. Which file types can Scratch upload into a sprite?
This might go into another page for topics, tell me if this post does not go in Questions about Scratch.

You can only upload .svg, .gif, and .png,and .jpg files to my knowledge. There may be more, but not sideshow file types.

Hmm… Then, if I convert my slideshow to a GIF, it might be able to load! Thank you!

No, you can't upload .bmp files. Scratch won't allow me to.

I have an idea to fix your problem…

  • Make a *.odp file.
  • If you haven't already, install LibreOffice by this link: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/
  • Open the file in LibreOffice Impress.
  • Go to File>Export…
  • On “Data type”, choose “Default HTML”, and save it where you will find it.
  • Simply click Next until you can't, then click “Finish”.
  • A bunch of files will appear. You're interested in “img0.png”, “img1.png” etc
  • You can delete the other files.
  • Go on Scratch, and click “paint sprite”.
  • Then, go to “Import costumes”.
  • Selected all the imgX.png files.
  • And you're done!

There are probably better ways, but this one will work.

According to my testing, you actually can - but only on online Scratch.

That doesn't mean you should, though. There's no reason not to use a .png file over a .bmp file these days.

shh we don't talk about that
also the only easy way to do that is with ███████ ██████, and the OP probably doesn't have that.
also that's not useful for projects

WAV and MP3 are, there might be others but I know for sure that M4A isn't.
Also this is kinda a necropost but it's kinda on topic at the same time so I'm not really sure if it counts as spam?

Oh and I tried WAV but it doesn't work. it uploads the file but there's no sound. I can't even press the play button to hear it. It's just a horizontal line in the editing sound area

It's saying my file is 0:00 second but it's actually 3:18 seconds

How exactly are you turning the audio into an MP3, then?
