Here's a step-by-step guide on how to embed a video from Quickchannel into your PowerPoint presentation using Web Viewer:
Finding the Embed Code in Quickchannel:

Copying the embed code:
- Within the displayed embed code, look for a section containing
"embedUrl"
. - You'll find the actual video link after the colon (:) following
"embedUrl"

http://
