Just downloaded then attempted to play this -
then I opened it in LO to find that there is no sound attached.
Therefore here's another example of where MsFt is able to play a
sound byte
which LO must consider as dangerous ???
A possible solution:
play in MsFt PP then go 'behind the scenes' to collect the audio
sound byte ...
then piece the video with the audio together & save for your
enjoyment.

Thanks for your reply, anne-ology ! fear you misunderstood me ; I first
tried opening the .pps file in LibreOffice Impress, before checking to see
what would happen in the event I opened it in other media players such as
VLC. As stated above, I got no sound when I did so on my Linux Mint 17.1
machine ; I can report that the audio portion of the file didn't work any
better in Impress (LO version: 4.3.5.2) on an updated 64-bit Windows 8.1
machine. I had, of course, no difficulty whatever playing it in Powerpoint
(MS Office 2013)....
Anyone else
have any suggestions ? This wonderful presentation is available online -
4peonies.com/VanGogh.pps - so interested LO users can easily give it a
whirl and see if they get better results than I do....
