[Bug 172262] Re: [Upstream] Impress inserted video does not play

 

This is:
- a clearcut upstream issue
- wishlist/feature request unlikely to be fixable with a simple patch
- wont be fixed in libreoffice packaging
Resolving as WONTFIX in libreoffice packaging. This does not mean the issue will not be cared about, but if it is cared about (even by Ubuntu/Canonical contributors), it is done upstream at LibreOffice. 


** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Won't Fix

  3) What is expected to happen is when one embeds a video file into a
  blank Impress file, or opens an Impress file with video in it via
  openoffice.org-impress or libreoffice-impress ( sudo add-apt-
  repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get
  -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-impress ) via the
  Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/250365/+files/test.odp
  && soffice -impress test.odp && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/250368/+files/instalacia.ogg
  && totem instalacia.ogg

  it shows the first frame of the embedded video in openoffice.org-
  impress or libreoffice-impress, plays the video in editing mode, and
  plays the video in Slide Show, just as it does in totem.

  4) What happens instead is that in openoffice.org-impress or
  libreoffice-impress you see a grey rectangle where the video file is
  supposed to be, clicking the play button in the right-hand pane does
  not play the video, nor does clicking Slide Show -> Slide Show. The
  embedded video file plays fine in totem.

  Original description:
  When I put a video into presentation and change its size (doesn't matter, whether I keep aspect ratio), the picture is low quality on presentation mode playback, every font has some black dots inbound and so on. Seems like an issue with anti aliasing.

  Feisty plays the video OK.
