[ms office - 2010] Has Anybody Managed to Embed a YouTube Video in Powerpoint?

[Miscbrah]

Goodness this is doing my poor tiny head in!

 

If you've managed to embed a YouTube video into Powerpoint please share. The old embed codes don't work for me, the various edits and fiddles to embed codes old and new don't do anything or crash Powerpoint.

 

Ain't NOBODY got time for this.

 

Anyone have this sorted out there? :/

I download the youtube clip using youtube-dl (don't shoot me!) convert to avi using winff with the profile (MS Compatible AVI) and embed the avi into the powerpoint - just saves me a lot of hassle (I delete once shown)

 

I know everyone doesn't like downloading from youtube, but this saves video embarrassments during slideshows...

Upload and convert to Google Docs. Go to Insert Video > Search youtube.

F11 for full screen.

You know what I might have to resort to this indeed.

 

Gah does it really not work? Bummer.

 

Thanks to you both for replying though.
