Hi.
I have excerpt this parragraph from the LibreOffice Impress Guide at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Impress_Guide:
"Impress
only links media files and does not embed a media file into a
presentation. Therefore if a presentation is moved to a different
computer, any links will be broken and the media files will not play.
To prevent this from happening:
1. Place any media files which are included in a presentation in the
same folder where the presentation is stored.
2. Insert the media file in the presentation.
3. Send both the presentation and any media files to the computer which
is to be used for the presentation and place both files in the same folder on
that computer."
So, it works as both Brian and Dave had already deduced. As long as you keep
everything in the same folder (or in the root of the CD), there should be no
problem. I suppose you also can put the sound files in a sub-folder, so
everything would be more tidy.
Regards,
Joaquín

It's a simple job to test this, of course - and the answer appears to
be relative.

Surely all you need to do is to put your audio file in the same
folder as your presentation when you insert it, and to require your
correspondents to have both files in the same folder - wherever that
might be - before attempting to use them?
I trust this helps.
