Public bug reported: I prepared a presentaion on my laptop under k 12.10, now I've moved it to my desktop (13.04) it won't work. On loading it takes an _age_ around 30s to render each page and is frozen while it waits. It won't play an embedded movies.
Testing shows that a presentation without movies in it behaves just fine - adding a movie to creates the same problem as above. The odd thing is that will it is so slow and is dead between pages it is not using any CPU as measured by top. It is also spamming the console with: (soffice:11475): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_set: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (soffice:11475): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_set: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (soffice:11475): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_get_bus: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed (soffice:11475): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bus_add_watch_full: assertion `GST_IS_BUS (bus)' failed (soffice:11475): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bus_set_sync_handler: assertion `GST_IS_BUS (bus)' failed (soffice:11475): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Which may or may not be related to the go-slow / don't play movies I had to install ubuntu-restricted-extras and all the gstreamer plugins manually for gstreamer1.0 (0.1 had been installed correctly) So this looks like an incorrect set of dependencies somewhere and terrible error reporting that looks the responsibility of libreoffice. ** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1194151 Title: movies don't play libreoffice impress To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/1194151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
