Embed YouTube videos into Keynote

May 26th, 2009

I wanted to embed a YouTube video into my presentation in Keynote for tomorrow, so I did a search for a tutorial and found a YouTube video telling me what to do – but it seemed so convoluted. I then remembered reading about a new site that could convert YouTube videos to a format that would work in your media player. I found the announcement about Farkie on DownloadSquad and started to try it out – but got nowhere :(

This is all I could get after trying five or so times to get one video.

Error

Instead I was able to get Vixy to work :)

Just a little tip from me after trying multiple options.
