[libreoffice-users] impress and video glitch (repost)

[resent as I used wrong sending email address - apologies if it appears 
twice]


Hi; somewhat pressing problem here; would be grateful for any help.

I'm trying to put a video into an Impress presentation. It all works, 
/except/ for a (single?) wrong frame at start and end making a nasty 
flicker.

On embedding a video, a frame is picked from somewhere in the video (not 
the first), which is shown in edit mode to provide something to see and 
manipulate in the editor. If the video is linked, I get a grey rectangle 
with a '?' in it instead. That's OK.

The problem I have is that when the presentation runs, the video plays 
OK except it both starts and ends with that particular frame showing 
very briefly. This makes a nasty flicker at start and end.

Fading in doesn't help - the extraneous frame is faded in, and then the 
video plays.

This is with LO 4.2.7.2 on Mint 17 (64 bit). But I'm almost sure the 
issue goes back to OpenOffice days and XP. I've found nothing on the web 
even mentioning this issue.

I'm hoping I'm just missing something simple! I'd be grateful for any 
help - I'm trying to get this running for tomorrow. Thanks.
