I am trying to find a site that you can actually download music videos (not flash). It needs to be legal (regardless of whether its a pay site or free). Any suggestions?

http://www.youtube.com/ + http://keepvid.com/

You can save most videos as mp4

keepvid will also convert files from flv to avi

maybe you should learn a little bit more and figure out it takes about 30 seconds to google how to save the flash files and convert them to any format you want

It's really easy to embed youtube videos directly into powerpoint

^ when you're trying to rickroll a meeting you can't depend on the internets, plus it's lame

Ok so I added the url into the shockwave flash object section of powerpoint

i removed the "watch?" part and changed the "=" to "/" and the youtube videos still don't play. It embeds the player in the powerpoint but you cant start the video


what am i doing wrong


besides being a powerpoint n00b

It won't play unless you're viewing the slide show. Until then i think it shows up as a black/white X.
