  3. Play YouTube Videos in PowerPoint without Internet

    PowerPoint2007 Compatible multimedia file formats:
    Audio: .aiff, .au, .mid or .midi, .mp3, .wav, .wma
    Video: .asf, .avi, .mpg or .mpeg, .wmv

    First download the YouTube video locally,then convert FLV to Windows Media or AVI format using Pavtube Video Converter.If you need download i suggest u Pavtube Youtube Converter(Notice that, it is a shareware factually (for it has powerful conversion function), but if you just use its download function, it is totally free, and will not generate any limitation to disturb you. )
    Pavtube Video Converter: Best software to convert video, convert WMV, AVI, MPEG.
    Pavtube YouTube Converter - Convert YouTube to MP3/MP4/WMA/Audio

    Embed YouTube Videos Directly into PowerPoint
    This is the easiest approach and recommended if are sure that the presentation venue will have great connectivity. Download the YouTube Wizard plug-in from skp.mvps.org and upon installation, this will add a new "Insert YouTube Video" command to your PowerPoint Toolbar.

    Insert YouTube videos to your PowerPoint presentations from the menu
    You simply have to type the URL of the YouTube video and follow the wizard to add the YouTube video player in your current slide. You can resize as well as reposition the player anywhere on the slide.
     
  4. Hi,

    For playing YouTube videos in a Teams live lesson, we're advising staff to insert them into the PowerPoint (Office365 ProPlus Current Channel 13029.20344) using UI route Insert -> Video -> Online Video. This works well, as when the students hit play it streams it directly on their connection rather than via Teams, which can occasionally be choppy, especially if our staff members are Teams'ing from home on a slow connection.

    This worked up to and including yesterday, however is now broken! I thought our SmoothWall was blocking something but it's not - and I came across a message on a Google support forum in the US where someone was saying similar. We can insert videos into PowerPoint from other sources such as Vimeo.

    Are others in the UK having the same problem? I guess we either wait for YouTube to fix it (unlikely) or Microsoft to update PowerPoint? (unlikely?!)

    Thanks
