Yes, insert follows the standard behaviour vs the file format, and also 
makes the presentation interoperable. Drag and drop works, but is not as 
accurate as insert. I have never used drag and drop with Impress once I

I will check. I can sed the video back, and have the text on top of it, 
maybe is just the configuration of the text animation (as the text to be 
on top of the video has to be managed with an animation).
