I'm wondering about creating a presentation, actually for a church
service. This will have slides for song words etc in the usual way. But
part way through, it would be advantageous to have a live feed from a
video camera within the church, and to have the video from this appear
on-screen as part of the presentation.
Obviously one could stop/pause impress, switch to a different app and
show the live video, then switch back to impress for the rest of the
service, but this looks a very clumsy approach and I was hoping (vainly
perhaps?!) for something a little smoother.
Hope that's clearer! But I most strongly suspect I'm out of luck :-{
Got it. Interesting project/concept, I'll do some experimenting& see if
I can figure out a way to do this. What OS& version of OOo?
I doubt it is possible, since it is apparently impossible to even embed
a youtube video, where the video is hosted on youtube, but displays in
the presentation.
Not directly, it seems. But NoOp (thanks!) has given a pointer that
looks well worth following up to do this indirectly using an external
program. Much will depend on whether /that/ can be persuaded to offer
the right features (eg sending a display to the correct screen). Not
that I know a whole lot about linux video applications, but I'm learning
fast :-}
