Error Message When Embedding YouTube Code into PowerPoint

Hello Gary D Reed,

This could happen if you're using PowerPoint 2010. If this is the case, you can try changing the code a bit.

Simply find all the places where it says https://www.youtube.com/ and change it to //www.youtube.com. Also wherever it says version=3  change that to version=2

And if you find all this way too confusing, try checking this box under the YouTube video.
