Re: [libreoffice-users] video in impress presentation mode

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply.  I tried memory.  It's set to several times the 
size of the video and matches the desktop settings.  I tried changing it 
with no improvement in the result.  I'd love to hear any other ideas you 
or others might have.  I will also try the whole user profile later.
