You may sometimes need to add a web video from popular sites like YouTube to your PowerPoint. But the web video cannot be hyperlinked directly to a slide due to Internet block; the video has to be downloaded and then stuck with your presentation. So, you have to download the web video first, often in format of FLV, convert it to a PowerPoint-compatible video file format (e.g., ASF, AVI, MPEG or WMV), and then insert the converted video to your presentation.

There are many free video download software available, like Leawo Free YouTube Downloader, or free web services to download and convert YouTube videos for PowerPoint, like http://vixy.net/. But I will tell you how to download videos from YouTube or other video sharing websites by Firefox. Firefox is a popular web browser for its features of speed, security and customization, I’d prefer to introduce 5 add-ons of Firefox to help you quickly download YouTube videos for FREE. Then you can convert the video and import it into PowerPoint.

After you installed the Firefox, run it, click “Tools” on the toolbar, on the dropdown menu, choose “Add-ons“.
