in theory, all movie and sound files that your default browser can play should also be playable in Draw and Impress.
I think you mean default media player, not default browser?
Unfortunately, it is not easy to guarantee this for a multi-platform program. So there are some issues:
That is a lot of issues! I have another question. In the Help, a note in the Media Player topic says: --------------- On UNIX systems, the Media Player requires the Java Media Framework API (JMF). Download and install the JMF files, and add the path to the installed jmf.jar to the class path in Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Java. --------------- Minor issue: Is "UNIX" the best term to use here? I assume it includes Linux, but I'm not sure that all the newbie Linux users (of which I am one) equate "UNIX" with "Linux". Real question: is there somewhere with good, clear, easy-to-follow (for us Linux newbies) instructions on where to get and how to install JMF, specifically on Ubuntu? (I'm not suggesting that info should be in the Help, but I want to know for my own use.) I had a look through Synaptic but didn't find anything I recognised as being JMF or JMF-related. Thanks for any help you can give me. --Jean --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@documentation.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@documentation.openoffice.org
