Hi,

I have libreoffice-bin installed and I can insert video files into
presentations. I tried a few random files that were lying arround (mp4,
flv etc) and they all work. 

Do you have the appropriate gstreamer plugins installed ? 
have a look at the media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta package.

No I don't have that installed. I thought that the gstreamer USE flag in 
libreoffice would take care of all gstreamer dependencies. Also I don't 
use libreoffice-bin. I have been emerging libreoffice. Will emerge the 
plugins. Do you think I need to reemerge libreoffice after emerging 
gst-plugins-meta?


Thanks,

Nope. Gstreamer detects plug-ins on the fly. You can run revdep-rebuild
to make sure.

I emerged gst-plugins-meta with various USE flags and movie insertion in 
libreoffice works now.


Thank you.

[gentoo-user] libreoffice: don't know how to handle video

2012-09-23 Thread Valmor de Almeida
Hello,

I have emerged libreoffice with the USE flags below and still the
Insert-Movie and Sounds does not import any movies I tried (formats):
avi, mpg, ogg.
Every movie I tried plays fine with vlc on my machine.

Has anyone been able to insert and play movies in libreoffice?

Thanks,
