Hello,

As to your question of adding a Youtube video into a PowerPoint,
First, you need to go to http://www.flvsoft.com/ to download two software,
FLV to Video Converter and FLV Downloader. Then use FLV Downloader to
download the YouTube video that you want to your local computer, and then use
FLV to video Converter to convert the downloaded FLV file to other video file
formats. Then you can insert the generated video file into your PowerPoint.
Following is the steps of how to insert video into PPT:
1. On the Insert menu, point to Movies and Sounds, and then click Movie from
File.
2. Click the video you want to use and then click OK.
Tips: 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.
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 choosing Automatically even if you want the movie to play when
clicked- I will talk about how to set this part too. (If you choose when
clicked you have to click the black box to start the movie. Because I don’t
like to show the black box on the slide, I do this a little differently.)
4. You should now have a small rectangle sitting on your slide.
Insert a movie using a file on your computer or in another location, such as
a server.
The movie appears as a still frame on your slide.
The trick I use is to move that rectangle off the slide, so it is sitting
next to it, but not on it. You can size it down if you like. Click the movie
(that is, the rectangle) and then drag it off the slide.
