anyone know of a way to embed a YouTube video in PowerPoint?

I am trying to create a PowerPoint presentation and would like to try and find a way to embed a YouTube video, without having an external link that opens a new window into YouTube' site.

Thanks in advance.

You need to have the video on your computer first.

If your saving the presentation to a USB drive, the video needs to stay with the presentation, so the video needs to be in the same place from when you import it, until you play it or else the video wont show.

Download the video onto your computer (which I think you can do on YouTube) then when your in a Powerpoint presentation click Insert > Movies and Sounds > Movie From File. Then it will ask you to browse for the video.

To play it just press any key, like you would advance to the next slide.
