I inserted a YouTube video in my PowerPoint 2016 presentation and the slide with the video will not play in Presenter Mode. It will play in non-presenter mode and in "duplicate slide show" setting but i am doing a presentation and would like to not disturb the flow. What can i do? Any solution??

    Are you posting a link to the YouTube page or the Embed Code from YouTube?

    (Per Bob Jones (aka Cybertaz), the parts about screen capture only apply to Windows. On the Mac you would use Cmd+Shift+4. See his screenshot for various shortcuts. https://filestore.community.support.microsoft.c... )

    I tried it before I posted because lately I have just been using videos from the pc because I've had bad experiences with Internet connections when making presentations. So, before I told you to do it, I tried and made sure it would work, when in presenter view. It does.
