Default Inserting Youtube video url in Powerpoint 2007

I have observed that when I insert Youtube video url in the first slide of my Powerpoint Presentation the concerned Youtube video plays flawlessly when I run the Presentation. However, if I insert the same Youtube video url in the second slide of my Powerpoint Presentation the Youtube video does not play at all and I get a blank white video box image only. Please help.

Try adding the following to the end of the video URL

&autoplay=1

See if that works now.

I have been able to achieve my objective by saving my Presentation as macro-enabled show. Thanks for your kind assistance Belinda

No problems. If you need to run it as a normal PPT or you have issues with running a macro-enabled show on a computer other than your own, the above code at the end of each YouTube URL will tell the video to automatically play when the slide is displayed and you will then be able to save as a standard .pptx file.
