PowerPoint Tips:Play Youtube Video in PowerPoint 2003/2007

Summary: Step by step guide on how to embed Youtbe video into PowerPoint and insert Youtube video on PowerPoint without having to download it.

Have you ever thought of adding Youtube videos to your PowerPoint presentation to make it more attractive? Since there are abundant of online flash videos in many websites, many of which are funny and full of demonstrative element and so proper to be shown, is it possible to play these flash video in PowerPoint?

Yes. If the flash video can be played on your computer It is absolutely possible. And only with an ActiveX Control- Shockwave Flash Object, you can play Youtube video in your presentation with great ease.

Please make sure your computer can play flash video
If not, you need to download an Adobe Flash-player freely from http://www.adobe.com. If you have downloaded an old one, it is strongly recommended to download the newest one, uninstall the old one first then install the new one. This is because if you installed the Adobe Flash-player, the ActiveX Control Shockwave Flash Object would be installed automatically.

Step 1: Get URL of Youtube video

• Find the flash video in Youtube, click it to make sure it being played
• Copy the content in the box below" embed" and paste in a notepad, the value or embed src is the URL of the Youtube video. The interfaces are as follows:

Step 2: Insert the ActiveX Control Shockwave Flash Object to your PowerPoint

• Find the specific slide on which you want to play the video, and switch to edit mode
• In PowerPoint 2003:, Click the "View" tab in the menu bar, then choose "Toolbars" in sub-menu, later "Control Toolbox" to display" Control Toolbar"
  In PowerPoint 2007: First turn on the Developer Tab on the Ribbon by clicking on the Microsoft logo at the top left of the window and selecting PowerPoint Options all the way at the bottom of the menu. Next put a check next to the unchecked item to show the Developer Tab.
• Click on the icon with the tools on "Control Toolbar", a cascaded list will appear, scroll down the list until get to Shockwave Flash Object item and click this item. Then the ActiveX Control is inserted successfully

Step 3: Add the Youtube video link to your PowerPoint

• Right click the ActiveX Control Shockwave Flash Object, select" Properties", there will pop up a window.
• On the " Alphabetic" tab in properties window, click the " movie" item, in the value column (the blank cell next to "Movie" ), input URL of the Youtube video.

Step 4: Fine tune YouTube video in your PowerPoint file
You can set specific options for how the video played in the slideshow, do the following, and when you have done, close the Properties dialog box.

• Since the video file from YouTube has a Start/Pause control built into it, if the Playing property is set to True,you can set it False to disable the Start/Pause control
• If you don't want the video be played repeatedly, in the Loop property, select False (click the cell to get a down arrow, click the arrow, and select False)
• In the EmbedMovie property, click True, you can embed this presentation to another computer. Of course, in order for the YouTube video to run, the Shockwave Flash Object control still need be registered on any computer that runs this presentation
• With the slide displayed in normal view, click the Slide Show button in the lower left of the PowerPoint window (or press F5, or, on the Slide Show menu, click View Show) to run the YouTube Video.

How to Insert a Youtube Video into PowerPoint

I often meet such questions in Yahoo Answers, so i'd like to share my own opinions about solving the problems.
Generally there are two methods:
Method I:Play the PowerPoint offline
1.to download Youtube video with the free software Leawo Free YouTube Download

2.then convert the Youtube video to avi format with Leawo Free AVI Converter

3.insert the avi video into PowerPoint
Step 1: On the Insert tab, point to Movies and Sounds, and then click Movie from File.
Step 2: Click the video you want to use and then click OK.
Step 3: After you click OK, you' are promoted with a message asking how you want the movie to start in the slide show. I recommend you choosing "Automatically "even if you want the movie to play when clicked. And that's done.
Tips:
1. This is the easiest way to insert a video.
2. When playing the video that is inserted in this way in the PowerPoint, it only shows the video picture, and only has two control options: play or stop. So you can't select the playing time freely
3. Only video in formats of AVI, MPEG and WMV can be inserted in this way
4. Always put the movie in the same folder as your PowerPoint presentation.If you later move the PowerPoint presentation to another computer, copy the movie too. Keeping your movie in the same folder as your presentation ensures the link will still work. However, you should always test the movie on a new machine just to be certain. Re-insert the movie, if necessary.

Method II:Play the PowerPoint online
You need four steps to make it:
Step 1: Get URL of the video
Step 2: Insert the ActiveX Control Shockwave Flash Object to your PowerPoint
Step 3: Add the the video link to your PowerPoint
Step 4: Fine tune the video in your PowerPoint file
