I figured out that if you right click the image and insert the link via the pop up then it all works. If you try to insert the "online video" link via the ribbon at the top, it doesn't.
I don't know why, I'll leave that the engineers to figure out.

Was this PowerPoint the software or on Dropbox website? Did it work when ran as a presentation on the machine or via a link on Dropbox?

Hi Mark, it was the desktop software powerpoint. Once I add the link I uploaded the file to docsend and then reviewed the docsend link to find that nothing happens at all when it gets to the page with the video. This does work with the desktop verison of word however but thats not a solution because you can't neatly convert a powerpoint file to word. Beleive me I have tried. The best that docsend support could say was "it works fine for us!". Useless lot.
