Some quick written instructions below:
(1). In PowerPoint, enable the developer tab by choosing "PowerPoint Options, then "Show Developer tab in the Ribbon"
(2). On a new slide, choose "Developer" tab -> "More Controls -> "Shock Flash Object" and click and drag a rectangle for your embedded YouTube video. It will look like a rectangle with an "x" inside it.
(3). Copy the url of the YouTube video you want embedded.
(4). Right-click the "rectangle x" and choose "Properties"
(5). Copy/paste the YouTube url into the "Movie" line.
(i.e.,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hChq5drjQl4&feature=player_embedded)
(6). Remove the "watch?", put a / after the "v", and remove "="
