Can anyone assist me in writing a specific section of the OOo3 Impress

For example, I'm totally unclear on the difference between Insert >
Movie and
Sound versus Insert > Object > Sound (or Insert > Object > Video). I can
get
the first to work (on WinXP), but not the second (an "object" icon
appears on
the slide, but doesn't do anything).
afaik, the Insert-Object-Sound/Video commands are mainly still there out
of historical reasons. Normally, Insert-Movie&Sound should be used.
If there is info in the Help, I've been unable to find it, and some of
what I
have found doesn't seem to correspond with what I see in WinXP.
please send me some pointers to the incorrect Help pages.
I've been searching the OOo forum and the Web, but it's slow going and I
suspect I don't know the right search terms. Pointers to specific
topics, threads, or pages, or some help from an experienced user, would
greatly speed this up. Not just regarding those menu items, but
generally what should be covered in the Impress user guide regarding
sound and video in presentations.
in theory, all movie and sound files that your default browser can play
should also be playable in Draw and Impress. Unfortunately, it is not
easy to guarantee this for a multi-platform program. So there are some
issues:
