Video's are not embedded, only linked. Best way is to put the video into the same folder as you presentation BEFORE you insert it into your presentation. Then insert it and take it with your presentation wherever you take it.

Thanks for the clarification regarding embedded versus linked.
This morning I saved the video into the same folder as my presentation
and then inserted it into Power Point; which worked great until I
needed to use the projector. The picture and sound show up on my
monitor but not on the projected screen??
Thanks again,
Elizabeth

there could be several problems: filename or path is too long, hardware
acceleration should be pushed down. The best is to read this

and have a look at this multimedia tutorial:
