PowerPoint Video Conversion

I was successfully able to download the YouTube video in mp4 format, convert the file to avi and wmv and insert them into a PowerPoint presentation. This is very useful knowledge as I have had to save a YouTube video to my desktop and switch between my PowerPoint presentation and the desktop files during a teaching experience before. This task can easily lose the attention of the students if technical difficulties ensue, so I will be sure to insert videos to the presentation from here on out!
