How can I embed Youtube videos in presentations with Beamer? (Windows 7, editor: TeXstudio, TeXlive)

Here is what I tried so far (including internet search of cause): I already tried using vlc to download the video, which itself couldnt play the video afterwards.

I used a browser extension called video downloadhelper, but I am not really satisfied, because that doesn't use the source. Instead it makes a video of the screen.

I tried using the \movie{}{} command, but it doesn't want to work. TeXstudio (my editor) tells me:

You clicked on a video, but the video playing mode was disabled by you or the package creator.

Recompile TeXstudio with the option PHONON=true.

I didn't yet try to compile in cmd, but I will try that later today.

Thanks in advance.

edit: I got the source for the youtube video via firefox with right click, inspect element, copy video url. Still vlc cant read anything converted with vlc.

  • Check out the media9 package, http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/media9/doc/media9.pdf – Nicky Mattsson Nov 06 '15 at 10:59
  • @Nicky Mattsson Does media9 work better than multimedia? – Fabi Nov 09 '15 at 12:18
  • I do not know, but the documentation for the media9 include a complete example on how to include a youtube video. – Nicky Mattsson Nov 10 '15 at 13:00
