when i go to slide show veiw and view it its doen't show i  just have a blank page

otherwise very helpfull thankyou but pls help me!!

[technolingual]

@matteroffact06 Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry you're having so much trouble. One thing to do is check that you modified the URL like I show about 30 seconds into the video. Also, in the blank page can you right-click it and look at properties to see if the movie URL is in the box marked movie?

I hope this helps.

OK I did this but when I play it as a slide show, it wont let me move to the next slide when I click the mouse....I have to press escape and go through all the slides again to get to the right place. Is there anyway around this?

[technolingual]

@nursepatient Sorry you're having trouble. Check that you are modifying the URL as shown at :37 and you may want to try adding the video without using the custom box. Make sure you set loop to "false" as shown at 2:12.

Good luck.

Thanks for the tips... also...

It works great if you use "zillatube" :---)

It helps you convert to mpg format and embed into powerpoint easily,

and present them offline without the internet at all.

Also helps you play them. (and also convert them) e.g. convert to mp4 or mp3 for ipod/itunes, mp3 player, mpg for windows movie maker editing/windows media player, USB flash drive, handphone, and more)

just google search for "zillatube", and select the first search result for download...

Use ZillaTube to download from YouTube...... at fast speed to your computer, and also convert so easily to powerpoint video file.

Then just insert that video into your powerpoint

just google for "zillatube" It works awesome.

gustazaz,

I'm sorry you are still having a problem. Remember, you can do it with and without the custom box. I hope this helps.
