Hi all,

I'm hoping someone has a solution for this, its one of those silly little problems which is really eating my brain. I'm currently devising a presentation and I want to embed a video into powerpoint 2013, everytime I go to insert the embeded code I get an error message saying "powerpoint can't insert a video from this embeded code. Try a different embeded code or use a different website". The code is as follows:

******** src="http://europa.eu/!NT86hY" id="videoplayer" width="600" height="33" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" webkitAllowFullScreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowFullScreen="true">*********>

Any ideas?

this is HTML for web pages, not PPT.
in PPT slide, simply insert a hyperlink to the video: http://europa.eu/!NT86hY

Thanks for the response ranman. Still getting the same error message.

When researching this issue online the guidance states to import the embeded code (above) via "insert video - online video". When this didn't work i've done what you suggested, which again gives me the error message.

I guess i'll just have to put the address on the slide rather than embedding it.
