You can take any video formats you want from YouTube.

Then embed the YouTube video to your PowerPoint.

2. Embed YouTube video into PowerPoint

Tips:

Always put the movie in the same folder as your PowerPoint presentation. If you later move the PowerPoint presentation to another computer, copy the movie too. Keeping your movie in the same folder as your presentation ensures the link will still work. However, you should always test the movie on a new machine just to be certain. Re-insert the movie, if necessary.

PowerPoint 2003 and PowerPoint 2007 may a little different.
