Default How to place an externally linked video while keeping formatting functionality

I have several hundred videos on my hard drive that I want to place into my presentation.



In order to keep my presentation size manageable, I am using the developer option which allows me to insert a video via a direct file path to its location on my hard drive as opposed to directly embedding the video into my presentation.

The problem is when I do that, I lose the video formatting tools.

Any suggestions?

Insert the video, in the normal way but choose LINK TO FILE. (From the iNSERT DropDown)
