SlideShare takes over YouTube
Jan 20, 09:17 pm PST
Well, kind of. Many presentations have video in them. Some presentations are shared as video. Sometimes there is a demo that you might want to embed into your presentation. Sometimes its a movie clip.
Starting today you can embed YouTube videos into SlideShare! Yes, its really easy. After uploading your video, go to “Edit” and choose the Edit YouTube video tab. Choose the slide and paste the embed code for the video. We will add a slide in that spot with the video embedded.
You can embed multiple videos into the slide. But please be gentle. This is in Beta.
For FAQs, examples & other details, check out this page http://www.slideshare.net/youtube-in-slideshare
What can you do with it.
- Add a movie clip into your presentation to illustrate a point
- Create a presentation which is compilation of multiple videos (maybe its the talks from five speakers at a conference)
- Just embed a talk. If you have a video talk and want to share on SlideShare, just embed a slide.
Bert Decker, the well known communications expert has used this feature to do a commentary on Obama’s inauguration speech.

SlideShare - YouTube dual view?
Is there also a SlideCast available with SlideShare and YouTube in something like a dual view? I know I can sync an audio track with a slideshow but can I do the same with a YouTube video? So that I can see my speaker on one side and his / her lecture on the other? A system like this, called Collegerama, has been setup at my university (TU Delft). For example:
http://collegerama.tudelft.nl/mediasite/Viewer/?peid=3eff4f4c342449cfb9cfcfdad7fecdac
However it is not free to use by everyone and requires additional plug-ins.

It is cool idea, but doesn’t work properly. Then you add the video, the last slide of presentation is disappeared !!!!

@Sporitus: I don’t think that’s true, can you show me an example?

ashwan,
How i can show you an example ? It happens in action. Just try to add youtube video between any slides and you can see, the last slides will be disappeared.

All video disappeared than I have updated my presentation !!!!

Curious .. why only YouTube. Sure.. they are the largest.. but what is the challenge (and I honestly do not know) to using the same process for embedding video from other services? I absolutely love this feature.. I’m struggling with YouTube. Thanks for the value add though.

hi,
now when i downloaded a presentation with videos in it the file instead of a pdf or ppt file now has .key extension.
i googled and it’s probably a keynote file, right?
is this intentionally? because i am using windows and now can’t open the .key file

Man, that is pretty Major right there. With Youtube one of the BIGGEST Online Companies in the World.
Really cool news for slideshare !!

This is a good idea with half-baked implementation. When I insert videos into my slide deck or view the above demo, the slide show skips over the videos before they even load. Also, if the video does load, and I click the YouTube play icon, the video plays for only a few seconds before the slide show progresses to the next slide. What needs to happen is that the slide show set-up options allow you to either pause for user input at each video, or automatically play each video. In any case, the video should finish playing before the slide show progresses. I love the idea, but unless the above described problem is unique to me, this is buggy. I’m using IE7 on Vista64.

I’m having almost the same problem as Gregg. Only one YouTube will work properly in a SlideShare versus five. I’ve decided due to time constraints to take out the embeds for now.

Great post. I can’t believe how much slideshare has grown and can support business. I ended up finding a great embeded video on Joomla training via slideshare.
I haven’t been able to replicate the embeding though.
I’ll be back

Are more features going to be added?I started using http://Powershow.com for uploading my presentations since they offer multi-media features slideshare does not.

[...] If I were to find a con, it’s that the presentations are limited to “slides” – not so great if you have cool slide transitions or animations. However, you can now embed a YouTube video into a SlideShare presentation. [...]

This is good. But what I need is a side by side view of a Slide and a YouTube Video. More like synchronizing the slide with the video. Similar to your slidecast feature.
