HI Nicky, this seems problematic that you can't make the video play from within the presentation. I see your note about needing to double click in Canva. I have my screen set up with presenter view on half the screen and then I have the presentation that zoom has the screen shared for over to the right. I can certainly have another tab open in canva and jump over there to double click but that starts the video in full screen which is not going to be within the bounds of my shared portion of the screen. Do you have any way that you can just play the video without it going to full screen mode? Many thanks, this was a really helpful video.
Hi Nicky, I tried pasting the link in the search bar in canva but it didn't work. The video didn't appear on the left side. Is it because my video is private? I pasted the link on the same page as the video already in canva, which worked but the link can be seen on the video while it's playing on UA-cam. I'm confused!
Hi, this was a really helpful video and did it this morning, I then used Zoom to present and the participants could hear the video, would you have any idea why, they could hear me speaking fine and could see the video playing but no sound for anyone?
Hi Karen, that's very odd. Could you hear the video when it played? If so, I think this is something you need to tweak in Zoom rather than Canva. I'm unsure if you need to allow your system's audio, as I do when recording sounds from my screen.
I'm wondering, is there any way this can be turned into a UA-cam reaction video? Where I have my face also on the screen in a small bubble and record myself with the video while I react to it?
If you're intending to post the video to UA-cam, this won't work for you unfortunately. You need to be 'live' to double-tap the UA-cam button to make it play in the presentation. What I suggest you do is check out Veed.io. It's inexpensive and will enable you to record your screen for a reaction video, and include your face at the same time. Just go to Record >> Screen and Camera. Good luck!
Hi Nicky, amazing video, thank you so much. I have one question though, I am trying to download a 20-25 minute video ( to my device ) on canva but the download gets to a certain place then it keeps freezing. Is my video too long or am I doing something wrong? Please respond as I am really struggling with this. Again, thank you so much for the video. I will definitely be checking out your other videos.😊
Hi Katrina, I'm sorry you're having problems with your video. I think this question is best directed to Canva support as it could be a technical issue. I hope you get it resolved 🙏🏼
@NickyPasquier my question thiugh is after you insert the video into a canva post how do you get it to ay automatically for an Instagram post in canva with various slides..because the video is not playing and there doesn't seem to be a clear way to make it play. .
@@NickyPasquier thank you for the quick response. I guess what I was trying to accomplish was the ability to play the UA-cam video inside the pdf, without leaving the page.
How can I export this for social media as opposed to a pdf? I would like to design a simple IG post with a UA-cam as part of it. Is it possible to export this in a format that can be posted to IG?
I'm afraid you can't, simply because you need to double-click to start the UA-cam video. It won't automatically play. The only option you have is to upload the raw video file into Canva and edit it that way.
Do I need to upload this to Google drive or Google slides in order for video to play. I created a course that has my UA-cam videos linked in it . I need to be able to send paid clients a link to course ❤
You can do what you like, provided you remember that a UA-cam video in Canva needs to be 'activated' by double-clicking. I can't see how you're going to be able to get students to do this without giving them editing permissions.
This was helpful, but my issue is that I need to record my presentation to submit it and when I am in presentation mode, the videos won't play!! Is there any reason why or any way around it?
@@NickyPasquier Thank you for all of the help in your video. I have a similar issue as @AllianceSpeechFeedingSwallowin. I can play the embedded youtube video in Present mode (I click the screen). I cannot play the youtube video when using Present and record (I click the screen but nothing happens). Does this mean it is not possible or have I maybe left out a step?
That's so annoying! Either YT has changed something, or Canva has. I'll flag it up with the Canva team & share feedback if I can. If you want to add your own videos in this way, it will probably work.
Hi Jamie, try this workaround: copy the share link as normal in YT, go back to Canva, then simply paste the link into your presentation. So click Command + V (if you use a Mac). Let me know if that works.
Great video; exacty what I needed, friendly, and straight to the point! Thank you

I'll take a look at this at some point, I'll need to set up Zoom and see what's going on.
Thank you!! I wanted a quick video for an outro to my presentation for class tomorrow, you're a lifesaver :)
Hey, I hope your presentation went well! 🏆
You were so hopeful to me!!! Thank you so much. My power point looks great 🎉
Thank you, you certainly made this appropriate and easy to follow instructions.
Thanks for it. I was looking for it.

@@leif1075did u find solution to do this?
Creating a call to action button with a UA-cam link doesn't show up for me. Any ideas? Thanks.
Adding a hyperlink to a YT video isn't quite the same as embedding a YT video.
@@NickyPasquier thank you for the quick response. I guess what I was trying to accomplish was the ability to play the UA-cam video inside the pdf, without leaving the page.

You can download for social media if you prefer, but the UA-cam video won't play. I'm fairly certain I explained this in the tutorial ;)
hi, how can you make youtube videos play automatically in presentations etc?
I'm afraid you can't, simply because you need to double-click to start the UA-cam video. It won't automatically play. The only option you have is to upload the raw video file into Canva and edit it that way.

You're very welcome :)
This was helpful, but my issue is that I need to record my presentation to submit it and when I am in presentation mode, the videos won't play!! Is there any reason why or any way around it?
You need to be able to physically double-click a YT video in Canva in order to play it. It won't auto-play.
@@NickyPasquier Thank you for all of the help in your video. I have a similar issue as @AllianceSpeechFeedingSwallowin. I can play the embedded youtube video in Present mode (I click the screen). I cannot play the youtube video when using Present and record (I click the screen but nothing happens). Does this mean it is not possible or have I maybe left out a step?
Ha. I feel like I'm so close but not quite there.
@@dixongtec6680 you cannot interact with your slides once you're in Present & Record. This is why you're unable to play your UA-cam video.
so how do i make it play for someone? i downloaded in every possible format they have and I cant play the video
If you watch the tutorial you'll find the answer to your question ;)
@@NickyPasquier this video?
when i press enter it always says "cannot be found" no matter what video link i try :(

Sorry to hear that.
