Hi Jay, 

Thanks for bringing this subject back. I wish so and i think it is not added
before https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GSoC/Ideas

This won't help i think. No audio, animations and transistions will not perform
good, so that won't be MULTIMEDIA. I tried it manually, exported slides as
jpegs (see: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67614)
converting them via video editor etc... but this is ends with a slideshow,
rather than a 'Prensentation'. 

Currently, you can create good presentations (some major features like
narration is absent but it is still ok) but you experience interoperability
issues LibreOffice to Ms Office even LibreOffice on Linux to LibreOffice on
Windows in terms of Impress.

Exporting a presentation to a video is the best way to avoid them. Which most
of Impress users struggled and found this way with no success. I guess the the
guy on twitter wants this feature for this reasons.

As i said above, if it is not added/accepted to GSoC, we can raise crowdfund on
https://freedomsponsors.org/project/149/LibreOffice#/LibreOffice or somewhere
else.

Best regards,
Zeki
