Almost everybody has used Microsoft Powerpoint in some part of their life. Lot of people like to add videos to make their presentation much interesting and to keep the attention of the audience.

Most people like to insert videos from the famous YouTube video site, which is a immense pool of knowledge where you can get from cooking recipes to mechanical demonstrations.



So I would like to give you the steps to add a YouTube video to a Powerpoint Presentation.

1 . Select the specific YouTube video URL it usually looks like this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXXXXXXXX)


2. Convert the .flv video to windows friendly .avi format. For this purpose use the online utility called Vixy.net this will convert the video and give you a download link from which you can download it to your PC.

3. Goto the PowerPoint slide where you want to embed the video, and navigate to Insert -> Movies and Sounds -> Movie from File. Select the video from where you saved it and hit OK.

4. Finally, choose whether you want to start playing the video automatically, or only after you click on it.

5. Thats all now you can insert any YouTube video in your presentations to attract your audience.
