Priority: medium
Bug ID: 60731
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Detect VLC support for multimedia on OSX if present
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: graphics stack
Product: LibreOffice
Currently, LO on OSX uses the Quicktime framework for allowing insertion and
playback of multimedia formats.
Unfortunately, the number of codecs supported out of the box is fairly small in
comparison to other multimedia frameworks, e.g. VLC, and extending the list of
Quicktime supported formats through extensions or plug-ins is also somewhat
error prone or even limited to specific versions of the OS.
This makes inserting and playing back multimedia files into ODF documents both
error prone, problematic and frustrating for the user.
It would be nice to be able to automatically have LO detect and use the VLC
framework if installed on OSX as there is a greater variety of built-in
supported codecs.
