Interactive Content on a Mac

Hi.
I work for a graphics company based in Newcastle, the IG Media Group. Here it is one of my jobs to create and author interactive DVD. Recently one of my colleague has created an interactive presentation totally in Adobe Flash. This works, however it was a very long and laborious process.

I have been given the task to find software and come up with a quicker and easier method of producing interactive presentations with Flash, Video, Audio, PDF and Power Point presentation on one auto play disk for both PC & Macs.

Not long ago I downloaded a demo version (not going to get the full copy till we know it works on both platforms) of Indigo Rose's Auto Play Media Studio 7.5. This works perfectly with all the different files and content imbedded auto opening as one presentation. However this only opens on a PC.

When building the project I have the option of a ISO image or straight to disk. Either way I end up with an .EXE file that will not open on a Mac. I've read many posts on here and have come to the conclusion that .EXE will just not open on a Mac without having something like Boot Camp or similar. This is not an option for us, if it was a small programme that could go on the disk, be installed in seconds and then simply open the presentation that would be fine. But asking our clients to install Windows on their Mac to open the presentation I feel is too much.

The reason I explain exactly what I ca creating and what with, is so that hopefully you can give me an alternative that will open on both Mac & PC. Don’t need to be auto run, but it has to be a full screen presentation with Flash, Video, Audio, PDF and Power Point assets.
