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.

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.
