  Google Video to Powerpoint
November 23, 2006 1:30:11 PM    View the profile of Rogueboy 
I need to take a piece from google video and put it on powerpoint, now everytime I try to do that regularly it says;

Powerpoint cannot insert a movie from the selected file. Verify that the path and file format are correct, and than try again.

How would I go about resolving this? and I need an answer sharpish, damn thing is due on Monday

Google videos aren't considered video files by alot of programs that use video files - for example, DvD burning software cant create a disk from a google video (A video disk, that is).

The best advice I can think of off the top of my head is to try and find some kind of converter, and change it to a more windows-standardish type.

The google video format is actually a flash variant.  I haven't seen any programs that will convert it to something useful, but I haven't exactly looked for one.
