Embedded Video in PowerPoint Slide

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this but I have a video I want to embed in PP 2010 and it won't work.  I can embed YouTube videos with very similar links.  Maybe someone else can figure this out?

The link I want to embed is on this page.  http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/6/1

The embedded code is is below and it looks right to me.  

<iframe width="480" height="320" src="http://player.history.com/pservice/embed-player/?siteId=hist&tPid=21175903" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen></iframe>

When I paste this link in the "Insert video from Website" dialog box I get an error stating it can't embed the code and make sure it is correct.

Hi,

Please try this Hotfix:

Fixed: PowerPoint cannot insert a video from this embed code in PowerPoint 2010 presentation

Hope it's helpful.
