[okular] [Bug 404106] Unable to render video properly in pdf files created by pdftex
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404106 --- Comment #13 from Jay Schieber --- Duh! Now I see that the problem was that I was mixing the new and old structure using the /src directory. However, even after that I cannot compile because of problems with CMake and KDE. This is getting too complicated to work properly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404106 --- Comment #12 from Jay Schieber --- I am getting a very stupid problem with path. I modified bashrc in the way I suggested, also added it the new path by hand, and checked: jay@desktop:~/kde/src/kdesrc-build$ $PATH bash: /home/jay/kde/src/kdesrc-build:/home/jay/kde/kdesrc-build:/home/jay/bin:/home/jay/.local/bin:/opt/texbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin: No such file or directory There it is (twice!). I then try to use it: jay@desktop:~/kde/src/kdesrc-build$ kdesrc-build okular kdesrc-build encountered an exceptional error condition: Config Error: Unable to open file /home/jay/kde/kdesrc-build/kf5-qt5-build-include which was included from line 33 Can't continue, so stopping now. jay@jdshomeoffice:~/kde/src/kdesrc-build$ kdesrc-build okular kdesrc-build encountered an exceptional error condition: Config Error: Unable to open file /home/jay/kde/kdesrc-build/kf5-qt5-build-include which was included from line 33 Can't continue, so stopping now.

I did that, but still needed ./ to get it to run.

Version 1.3.3 from the repository for Ubuntu 18.04, and the most recent version that is a snap package (not sure what that is, because they seem to use different version numbers). I have two movies, both created by Mathematica, and both *.m4v files. I used the multimedia package in LaTeX to embed the videos in the pdf files. For several years this worked fine. But not anymore. In the 1.3.3 version, the movies simply do not run. In the snap package, okular crashes when they try to run. That is the behavior on my desktop. On my laptop, there is a little bit more success in that the attached minimal file runs fine, but if I add a second slide, with another video embedded, the second video does not work.

[okular] [Bug 397948] Animation stops working in presentation mode
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948 --- Comment #6 from Jay Schieber --- Sorry, I keep adding to this. I have now found that if I keep all of the movie files in the same directory, and put the slides in presentation mode, only the first slide plays correctly. However, if I toggle between presentation and window modes, it will then play correctly in the presentation mode. This must be a bug, no? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[okular] [Bug 397948] Animation stops working in presentation mode
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948 --- Comment #5 from Jay Schieber --- I think that the real issue for the current problem is that the movie files are currently stored in another directory. This directory is added to the latex file for the location of the movie, but that is somehow probably not passed to the pdf file. I tested this by putting all of the files in the same directory. Still, all of the movies play in window mode, but only the first in presentation mode. Unfortunately, I don't know that I have a few videos small enough to upload here as a minimal working example. Also, part of this seems to be a latex problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[okular] [Bug 397948] Animation stops working in presentation mode
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948 --- Comment #4 from Jay Schieber --- (In reply to Oliver Sander from comment #3) > Hi Jay, unfortunately your example does not contain the actual movie files. > Apparently they are not actually embedded with the pdf file. > > And what do you mean by "but still had an issue in one of the animations." ? Hmmm. I am not so sure about the movies being embedded. I have an old pdf made by latex that certainly has the movies embedded. I was always able to freely move the pdf file alone and still play the movies inside them. I have one of those, and it is a very large file (14MB), which suggests that it has the movies embedded. I was also able to move the pdf alone from my desktop to my laptop and have it work. However, now if I move it to another directory without the movies, okular cannot play them. It seems as if okular is just assuming that it needs to look externally. Unfortunately, the only way to track this question down would be to install a whole new OS (Ubuntu 16.04) on a VM and try changing things there. I just tried to attach the media files, but they are too large. The additional problem that I mentioned is that the movie shows up, but just flashes quickly, as if there were just one or two frames. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948 --- Comment #2 from Jay Schieber --- OK, another comment. I installed okular using snap, which was a higher version, 1.4.4.

[okular] [Bug 397948] Animation stops working in presentation mode
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948 --- Comment #1 from Jay Schieber --- Created attachment 114689 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=114689&action=edit example problem Here is an example of a pdf made from latex. There are four slides, and an animation on each slide. The first slide animation works in presentation mode. The remaining slides show animation only when not in presentation mode. If I delete the first slide from latex and recompile, then the new first slide (the previous second slide) now works in presentation mode, but the others do not. If I remove the first slide using pdftk, then the same behavior is seen: whatever the first slide is works, and the remaining do not. I am not able to check if this problem persists in later versions of okular (say 1.4), since I am unable to compile it on ubuntu 18.04 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[okular] [Bug 397948] New: Animation stops working in presentation mode
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397948
Bug ID: 397948
Summary: Animation stops working in presentation mode
Product: okular
Version: 1.3.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: PDF backend
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: jay.schie...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I have had animation working for several years with LaTeX Beamer, when using
the multimedia package. I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04. The animation in
Okular works fine as a window, but when I switch to presentation mode it no
longer works. Some new control buttons show up, but no animation. I could try
to provide a minimal working example, if you need it, but the switches look
like this:
\movie[
showcontrols,
autostart,
loop, % play continuously
]
{\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{../frame_capture.png}}
{movie.m4v}
