Hi

It's not simple to play flv files in PowerPoint. The only way I know is to
include them in an html file and then play this in PowerPoint = not easy and
needs vba. Maybe someone knows another way?

PPT + Shyam's LiveWeb to play the HTML, maybe?

It's fairly easy to get the html to play (even without Shyam's smart add in)
but I don't think there's any way of avoiding a little vba (just one line in
fact but it's still vba which may not be ideal)

.FLV files into PowerPoint. I find recently a lot of people are urgent to
make YouTube videos into PowerPoint presentation. My idea is: convert FLV to
other formats, AVI, SWF, etc.

Got the idea from the multimedia eCard article:
