NoOp, thank you for working together on this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. I confirmed your workaround via the following tests:
In Ubuntu 10.10, in both libreoffice-impress & openoffice.org-impress at the Terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/1827497/+files/testNoOp.odp && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/250368/+files/instalacia.ogg && soffice -impress testNoOp.odp A popup box notes: Update all Links? -> clicked Yes button -> clicked on the grey box with a question mark -> Play button, first time it played for a second then stopped. Second and subsequent times did not play at all. However, pressed F5 and the video was displayed in it's entirety. Closed the file. At the Terminal: mv instalacia.ogg ~/ && soffice -impress testNoOp.odp A popup box notes Update all Links? -> clicked Yes button -> grey box with a question is now a grey box with a speaker & waves coming out. Clicking Play button or F5 does not show the video. Clicked Edit -> Links -> Modify button -> instalacia.ogg -> Open button -> Close button -> Play button did not play at all. However, pressed F5 and the video was displayed in it's entirety. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 apt-cache policy libreoffice-impress libreoffice-impress: Installed: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 Candidate: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 Version table: *** 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 apt-cache policy openoffice.org-impress openoffice.org-impress: Installed: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 Version table: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Regarding your comment: > @Christopher: you are using a PPA version of LibreOffice (500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386), please file a bug against that PPA version and that package. It is known a PPA is being used & the bug against it is this bug. ;) Following the directions as per http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#Reporting_Ubuntu_bugs this bug was tagged with lo33. As well, this bug addresses the same problem (& workaround) in both openoffice.org-impress & libreoffice-impress, triangulating the efforts of the Ubuntu, LibreOffice, & OOo communities. Thank you for your understanding. ** Description changed: + WORKAROUND: Keep inserted video files in the same directory as the Impress file or manually update each inserted video file via Edit -> Links. + 1) HOST: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 GUEST: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 2) HOST: apt-cache policy libreoffice-impress libreoffice-impress: - Installed: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 - Candidate: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 - Version table: - *** 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 0 - 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 + Candidate: 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 + Version table: + *** 1:3.3.0-1maverick1 0 + 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status apt-cache policy totem totem: - Installed: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 - Candidate: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 - Version table: - *** 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 + Candidate: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 2.32.0-0ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - apt-cache policy virt-manager + apt-cache policy virt-manager virt-manager: - Installed: 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 - Candidate: 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 - Version table: - *** 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - 0.8.4-7ubuntu1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages + Installed: 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 + Candidate: 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 + Version table: + *** 0.8.4-7ubuntu1.1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 0.8.4-7ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages GUEST: apt-cache policy openoffice.org-impress openoffice.org-impress: - Installed: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 - Candidate: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 - Version table: - 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 + Candidate: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 + Version table: + 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) What is expected to happen is when one embeds a video file into a blank Impress file, or opens an Impress file with video in it via openoffice.org-impress or libreoffice-impress ( sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-impress ) via the Terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/250365/+files/test.odp && soffice -impress test.odp && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/172262/+attachment/250368/+files/instalacia.ogg && totem instalacia.ogg it shows the first frame of the embedded video in openoffice.org-impress or libreoffice-impress, plays the video in editing mode, and plays the video in Slide Show, just as it does in totem. 4) What happens instead is that in openoffice.org-impress or libreoffice-impress you see a grey rectangle where the video file is supposed to be, clicking the play button in the right-hand pane does not play the video, nor does clicking Slide Show -> Slide Show. The embedded video file plays fine in totem. Original description: When I put a video into presentation and change its size (doesn't matter, whether I keep aspect ratio), the picture is low quality on presentation mode playback, every font has some black dots inbound and so on. Seems like an issue with anti aliasing. Feisty plays the video OK. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172262 Title: Impress inserted video does not play -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
