Hi! Used to be that we could embed a link into Keynote to play during the slideshow; I'm not seeing how to do that now. Help! Please! It looks like the Keynote just wants the videos to live on board the computer, you just click Media and bring it in...
Thoughts? Thanks everyone!

Hi ViddyYo! I don't recall ever being able to embed videos in Keynote - but you certainly can not embed videos within a presentation now.
You will have to download the video from the video hosting site and place it as a movie within the Keynote.
If you own the rights, I would suggest using a website like www.keepvid.com to make it happen.
Very disappointed with Keepvid in that age restrictions for news videos and the like, prevent me form downloading. While preparing a presentation for University I was unable to download anything on Keepvid that was age restricted. Otherwise, yes it does work but makes your Keynote presentations enormous in terms of file size.
If you don't want to download the .mp4 video file and can install an add-in, check out the how to article at https://www.liveslides.com/how-to-insert-youtube-into-keynote. LiveSlides will load the YouTube video in an embedded browser and stream the video during your presentation. You just need to make sure you've got an internet connection.
How do I embed a YouTube Video in Keynote 6.5?
