How to Embed a Video From Your Computer

Your browser does not support video.

In PowerPoint for Microsoft 365 or PowerPoint 2019, you can insert an online video from YouTube or Vimeo on a slide.

In PowerPoint for Microsoft 365, version 1907 or later, you can also insert an online video from Microsoft Stream, a video service for enterprises—people in an organization can upload, view, and share videos with one another.

The video plays directly from the website, and it has the site's controls for playing, pausing, volume, and so on. The PowerPoint playback features (Fade, Bookmark, Trim, and so on) don't apply to online videos.

Because the video is stored on a web site, rather than in your presentation, you must be connected to the internet in order for the video to play successfully.

Insert a web video

  1. In your web browser, locate the video you want.

  2. Copy the URL of the web page from the Address bar of your browser.

  3. Switch back to PowerPoint and select the slide where you want to place the video.

  4. On the Insert tab of the ribbon, select Video > Online Video.

  5. In the Online Video dialog box, paste the URL you copied in step 2.

  6. Select Insert.

Play the video

If a video is inserted successfully, you can play it either in Normal view or Slide Show.

  • A Play button appears on the video in Normal view.

  • In Slide Show, you can interact with videos just as you would in a web browser.

  • By default, videos from YouTube and Vimeo play in "click sequence." You can play the video without having to click the Play button. Just tap the spacebar to advance to the next step in your click sequence.

Troubleshooting

Not all online videos from these sites are allowed to be embedded. You should check on the video site to find out if a certain video can be embedded.

Internet Explorer 11 is required on your computer

Note: Microsoft 365 apps and services will not support Internet Explorer 11 starting August 17, 2021. Learn more. Please note that Internet Explorer 11 will remain a supported browser. Internet Explorer 11 is a component of the Windows operating system and follows the Lifecycle Policy for the product on which it is installed.

For the purpose of playing videos in PowerPoint, Internet Explorer 11 is required to be on your computer. You don't have to use it to browse the web; you simply have to have it installed, because under the covers, PowerPoint needs its technology to play videos on Windows.

If your operating system is Windows 10, then you already have Internet Explorer 11 installed. If you have an older version of Windows, you can go to this Internet Explorer Downloads page for instructions.

In PowerPoint 2016, you can insert an online video with an embed code or search for a video by name. Then you can play it during your presentation.

The video plays directly from the website, and it has the site's controls for playing, pausing, volume, and so on. The PowerPoint playback features (Fade, Bookmark, Trim, and so on) don't apply to online videos.

Because the video is stored on a web site, rather than in your presentation, you must be connected to the internet in order for the video to play successfully.

Insert the online video with an "embed" code

  1. On YouTube or Vimeo, find the video that you want to insert.

  2. Below the video frame, click Share, and then click Embed. (If you neglect to click Embed, you'll end up copying the wrong code.)

    Click Share, and then click Embed
  3. Right-click the iFrame embed code, and click Copy.

    Copy the iFrame embed code

    If the highlighted text that you copy begins with "http", STOP. It's the wrong code to copy. Return to step 2 and click Embed:

    To work correctly, the code you use to embed your video must begin with either "iFrame" or "<object".

    If your embed code begins with "http", your video won't be embedded successfully.

  4. In PowerPoint, click the slide that you want to add a video to.

  5. On the Insert tab, click Video > Online Video.

  6. In the From a Video Embed Code box, paste the embed code, and then click the arrow.

  7. A video rectangle is placed on your slide, which you can move and resize as you like. To preview your video on your slide, right-click the video rectangle, select Preview, and then click the Play button on the video.

Search for the YouTube video by name

  1. Click the slide that you want to add a video to.

  2. On the Insert tab, click Video > Online Video.

    The button on the ribbon for inserting an online video in PowerPoint
  3. In the Search YouTube box, type the name of the video that you want to insert, and press Enter.

  4. Select the video from the search results, and click Insert.

  5. A video rectangle is placed on your slide, which you can move and resize as you like. To preview your video on your slide, right-click the video rectangle, select Preview, and then click the Play button on the video.

Preview the video

  1. Once the video rectangle is on your slide, select it, right-click it and choose Preview.

    A Play button appears on the video.

  2. Click the video's Play button.

    Because the video is on a web site, rather than actually in your presentation, you must be connected to the internet in order for the video to play successfully.

Embed content from Slideshare.net

On a slide in PowerPoint, you can embed content from Slideshare.net, a sharing web site for presentations, infographics, and documents.

On Slideshare.net, any content that can be embedded elsewhere has a Share button on it. That button opens a window where you can copy an embed code like an embed for a video.

  1. On Slideshare.net, find the content you want to embed.

  2. Select the Share button beneath the content frame.

    Sharing codes appear in the video frame.

  3. Select the box named Embed.

    All the text in the box becomes selected when you do this.

  4. Right-click the selected text and choose Copy.

    The text you've copied contains more information than you need, so it needs to be trimmed and re-copied.

  5. Paste the copied text into a text editor such as Word or Notepad.

  6. Select the portion of the text that begins with <iframe src ... and ends with </iframe>. Copy that text.

    That's the embed code you need for inserting the content into PowerPoint.

  7. In PowerPoint, go to the slide where you want to insert the content.

  8. On the toolbar ribbon, select the Insert tab, select Video, and then select Online Video.

    The Insert Video dialog box opens.

  9. Paste the embed code in the box named From a Video Embed Code, and then press Enter.

    It takes a moment for PowerPoint to absorb the content. When it has done so, a black box appears on your slide.

  10. To view the content, select the Slide Show button Slide Show view button on the task bar. near the bottom-right corner of the PowerPoint window.

Important: Office 2010 is no longer supported. Upgrade to Microsoft 365 to work anywhere from any device and continue to receive support.

Upgrade now

YouTube videos on PowerPoint 2010 have stopped working.    YouTube recently has discontinued support for the Adobe Flash Player, which PowerPoint 2010 uses behind the scenes to play a YouTube video embedded on a slide.

As a result of this change, you can no longer play a video in PowerPoint 2010. Instead you get an error message that says: "Flash-embedded videos are no longer supported."

There are two ways to work around this problem, described below Install an add-in that can play a video, or upgrade to a newer version of PowerPoint.

Use the LiveWeb add-in to insert and play an online video

This is a task for patient do-it-yourselfers who are comfortable with installing and setting up software on their own. We've tried to outline the necessary steps carefully.

There are three procedures below to help you    The first two only need to be done once: They install and set up the add-in. Once those are completed, you can use the third procedure to insert an online video on a slide in PowerPoint 2010.

Click a section heading below to open it and see the detailed instructions:

  1. Close Office 2010.

  2. Go to the home page for the LiveWeb add-in, and click the download link for PowerPoint 2007/2010/2010/2016 (32bit/64-bit) users.

    Get the LiveWeb add-in from this download page

    A compressed file, lwsetup40.zip is downloaded to your computer. To begin, you uncompress it to be able to use the files.

  3. In File Explorer, right-click the .zip file and choose Extract all.

    Right-click the compressed zip file to extract a file from it.
  4. In the Extract dialog box, select the Show the extracted files when complete option, and then click Extract.

    The Extract dialog box

    The uncompressed file is copied to your computer.

  5. Double-click lwsetup.exe to start installing the LiveWeb add-in on your computer.

    Double-click lwsetup.exe to start installing the LiveWeb add-in.

    Next you'll walk through a series of options before the add-in is installed on your computer.

  6. Click Yes to allow the app to make changes to your device.

    Allow the add-in to make changes to your device
  7. In the InstallShield Wizard dialog box, click Next.

  8. Read the license agreement, select I accept the terms of the license agreement, and then click Next.

    (You must accept the license agreement to be able to use the add-in.)

  9. The default installation folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Shyam Pillai\LiveWeb. Change it if you want to, and then click Next.

  10. All the options are now configured: Click Install.

    With all the options established, begin the installation
  11. Wait until the installation is completed and then click Finish to exit the installation process. You're ready to use the add-in now.

  1. Open Office 2010 from your Start menu.

  2. On the File tab of the toolbar ribbon, click Options.

    On the File tab of the Ribbon in PowerPoint 2010, click Options
  3. In the PowerPoint Options dialog box, select the Trust center from the left pane, and then click Trust Center Settings.

  4. In the Trust Center dialog box, in Macro Settings, select Disable all macros with notification and then click OK.

    Select "Disable all macros with notification" and then click OK

    The Trust Center doesn't disable the macros automatically this way. It makes you choose whether to enable or disable them yourself. In this case, we'll choose to enable them.

  5. In the left panel of the dialog box, click ActiveX Settings, select Prompt me before enabling all controls with minimal restrictions, and then click OK.

  6. Select Add-Ins from the left pane. From the Manage list, at the bottom, select PowerPoint Add-ins and then click Go.

    Open the list of PowerPoint Add-ins, and then click Go
  7. Click Add New to add the LiveWeb add-in to your list.

  8. Browse to the folder where you installed LiveWeb in step 9 of the previous procedure, select LiveWeb.ppam and then click OK.

    Select LiveWeb.ppam and then click OK.

The LiveWeb add-in is installed and ready to be used in PowerPoint 2010.

Sometimes the add-in doesn't appear in the list, but it will work properly. Click Close and read the following steps to use it.

  1. In your web browser, go to YouTube. Locate the video that you want to insert on a slide. Copy the https: address of the web page.

  2. In PowerPoint 2010, on the Insert tab of the Ribbon, near the right end, click the Web Page button.

    The LiveWeb add-in is found on the Insert tab of the Ribbon, at the far right end

    The LiveWeb dialog box opens.

  3. In the dialog box, click Next.

  4. In the top box, paste the address (from step 1) of the video you want to insert. Then click Add, and then Next.

    Paste the https address of the video you want to insert
  5. Ensure that the Yes, refresh web page automatically (real-time update) box is checked, and then click Next.

  6. In step #3, Click Next unless you first want to change any optional settings for your video.

  7. Click Finish.

  8. Click OK in the message box.

    Save your presentation. Now you're ready to test the video in Slide Show.

  9. Press F5 to start Slide Show. Once the video starts, press the Full-screen button to expand the video frame.

    Press the Full-screen button to expand the video frame
  10. If the screen looks like this after switching to full screen, press Ctrl+Plus sign once on your keyboard to expand the video:

    If the video doesn't yet fill the screen, press Ctrl and the Plus sign once to endlarge the video frame

    At this point, the video should fill the screen.

  11. Click Play, if necessary, to begin the video.

Upgrade to a newer version of PowerPoint if you can

If you are able to upgrade, we suggest that you do so as a way to work around this problem that can't be fixed:

  • You can upgrade from Office 2010 to a newer version that doesn't rely on Adobe Flash Player to play YouTube videos, and therefore doesn't have the same problem that PowerPoint 2010 now has.

    To make the upgrade beneficial, you need to be using a version of Windows that supports the version of Office that you've chosen. Office 2013 requires Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7. Office 2016 requires Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7 Service Pack 1.

    If you'd like to always have the latest version of Office, you can become an Microsoft 365 subscriber. Click to try or buy and to compare a subscription versus a one-time purchase.
