Is it possible to stream a YouTube video in Powerpoint for Mac 2011?

I would like to have a video in a Powerpoint presentation, without having to download the file. So just insert a link to youtube or vimeo, and then being able to play it directly form the presentation. Is this possible at all?

Edit: I did mean "stream" a YouTube video


Solution 1:

There is a very simple method by using the Hyperlink command in PowerPoint.

You can Hyperlink any object in you Presentation.

Here is a sample how to do it for this sample presentation I made.

enter image description here

Now Right Click on the Text Box "Streaming You Tube" and select Hyperlink.

In Hyperlink paste the link to the you tube video.

It looks like this in my example. enter image description here
