You can also uncheck the Start movie on click box on the Movie tab so that you don't have to click on the movie to start it. Basically, this sets your presentation up to autoplay the embedded video. When you press the Play button for the presentation, you'll see the video start playing on the slide.Click “Save” to download the video to your Downloads folder. Note that this process will probably be even longer than the conversion process, as the file must now be transferred to your computer over the Internet. This could take several minutes to an hour or more, depending on file size and the speed of your Internet connection.I have a habit of inserting a slide with black background before every video. These are the only slides that are completely black in my deck, so I know a video is coming next. I do this because I know I will want to set up a dramatic segue to showing the video, and I don’t want to accidentally start the video before I’m ready. Once I click past the black slide the video starts automatically.To embed a YouTube video in your Keynote presentation, you’ll need to use a how to embed a youtube video in keynote converter or the LiveSlides Keynote add-in. LiveSlides is fast to set up, but it requires an Internet connection for video playback. Video converters can take a long time to process, but you won’t need Internet access once you embed the video in your presentation. Learn how to embed live YouTube links with LiveSlides, as well as how to convert streaming video to an embeddable format using a free online video converter like Yout.com.Obviously if it’s your video, fill your boots. Otherwise, proceed with caution. There’s plenty of advice (ironically on YouTube) on how to download videos from YouTube.We noticed you’re using an ad blocker.

Also, if you open a YouTube video in VLC, then click on that tiny playlist icon, there should be the option “Properties” (or something like that) if you right-click on the video. The original source should be shown in the up coming window.Support wikiHow's Educational Mission Every day at wikiHow, we work hard to give you access to instructions and information that will help you live a better life, whether it's keeping you safer, healthier, or improving your well-being.

I recommend using a site like videograbber.net, as you're seeing me do here, to paste in the YouTube URL and then download the video.
