How to embed a video into a PowerPoint presentation 2007?

1. Open PowerPoint.
2. Start a new blank slide.

1. Then go to the insert tab. Click on the movie icon.
2. Choose a movie to insert that is stored on your computer. Now in this example I have inserted 4 movies on the same slide and chose to make them play by clicking on them.
3. Resize the movie by dragging the sides in or out.
4. Add more slides or titles etc to your presentation.
5. When the PowerPoint presentation is finished click on the Office symbol in the left corner.
6. A menu will appear. Go down to publish, then choose Package for CD.

1. Then a Package for CD dialog box pops up.
2. Where it says name the CD: Put a name for your presentation CD.
3. Now choose to copy to folder or copy to CD.

1. If you press on copy to folder: It will asks you if you want linked files in your package. This means it will put everything you need to run the PowerPoint presentation.
2. If you press on copy to cd it will check to see if you have a disc ready in the cd drive.
3. I chose to copy to folder and here are the results below.

PowerPoint not only put my presentation in a package to put on a CD, but it also put all the video that I had embedded and a PowerPoint viewer. Therefore if someone wanted to watch my PowerPoint but didn’t have the program then it would still play.

Notes on embedding a Youtube video into PowerPoint presentation CD:

• PowerPoint does it all for you.
• You can also embed a Youtube video from the internet and publish it to a presentation CD. This means the files will be grabbed from the internet so the person viewing the PowerPoint must have the internet.
