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??

No it isn't in protected mode.
Under File > Info is this in protected mode? If so, enable editing and then look.
Thank you Charles for the samples. Same as before. It plays in slide show but NOT in presenter mode. Also, the animation options are greyed out. Attached is a screen shot
If you want help with this please let me know:
Are you clicking on Play in the Animations tab?
Are you unable to click on that?
Are you posting a link to the YouTube page or the Embed Code from YouTube?
Have you been able to check the short presentation I posted?
Here is a temporary link to a short presentation with online videos added both ways. See if it works for you.
