How do I include a movie in a beamer/lyx presentation? I tried Insert/Hyperlink but the result was: Cannot launch external application. Thanks, EK

LyX produces LaTeX which is converted to HTML using htlatex if you export to "HTML". So it is possible that the way LyX produces LaTeX has changed in a way that htlatex does not like it. Can you send a minimal example? Scott signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Something changed there perhaps? Many of those converters use external tools. For example when you export to PDF (pdflatex), LyX calls the program "pdflatex". When you export to HTML, LyX calls usually the program "htlatex" I believe. If the version of the htlatex changed on your system, this would explain it. Note that LyX does not control the version of external tools (except in some specific cases on Windows I think). Scott P.S. Please respond to the list. Sorry, thought I had replied to the list, had one ear on the radio and not, concentrating. A big quake down country in the early hours. My in-box currently has over 150 reports of after-shocks. Have not intentionally changed any of the tools but one of our team may have picked up a new version when he packaged Lyx 2.2.2 for the MX-Linux repository. Gordon.

With non-tex fonts, you are overriding the document class default font settings. non-tex fonts by default use the Unicode-encoded version of LatinModern. AFAIK, IEEE document classes set some Times-like 8-bit fonts. These are also used with DVI(LuaTeX) unless you use fontspec (via the "non-TeX fonts" setting). Günter

That uses an external tool to do the export. What is your converter for it? htlatex? Perhaps it is a new version? Scott signature.asc Description: PGP signature
