Any suggests how I can best share a youtube video in a PowerPoint presentation?  I'm unable to use the video object config I normally use when presenting as a UCF.

Is sharing web content the only way to go?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I have found sharing Web Content pretty effective for youtube videos. Sometimes I paste the link in chat for attendees to click to playback.

Does the video stream this way or does it still need to download fully for each participant before it starts playing?
