[libreoffice-users] how to insert video
Hi all, Well, theoretically I know the answer, I read quite a bit of text and watched youtube videos. But I simply cannot make it work. I try it on openSUSE with KDE (Plasma) and LO 5.2.3.3. I read somewhere that only .ogg videos work - but not for me. I saw a tutorial where .avi also worked. OK, it is a container format. When I insert a video file, it is seemingly embedded, but when I try to play it, LO freezes. Sound files work. And one more thing: I tried to choose the insert reference option (or something like that), but it does nothing. It would be comfortable and acceptable if I could open videos in an external player What could be wrong? Help, please!

Re: [libreoffice-users] how to insert video
Are you sure you have the right video CODEC installed. I use Ubuntu, but you should try here: https://software.opensuse.org/package/opensuse-codecs-installer?search_term=opensuse-codecs-installer On 2/22/2017 2:49 PM, Albert, Oszkó wrote: Hi all, Well, theoretically I know the answer, I read quite a bit of text and watched youtube videos.

[libreoffice-users] Working with PDF docs that have data fields
Previous usage does not seem helpful but .. Then, when you export the PDF, make sure the "Create PDF form" option is selected on the "General" tab. 10/17/2016 12:44 PM, Ken Springer What I want to do is mess with the "data" file in the way Adobe does it. It's US tax forms and in the past they could be filled out by calculating the numbers on a spreadsheet and then modifying the little data file that holds blanks, or previously mucked with such as entering "line23", into the value area, It appears that Adobe has changed things yet again. So I find that LibreOffice Writer can open the downloaded PDF file and allow changes to be entered but there is no way to read the little data file and install the pre-calculated numbers and names. Previous text editors working with Ubuntu Linux have worked but they seem to be gone. Older PDF editors have had a menu option to save and re-enter the tiny "data file" which is just data and name pairs in lines of text. I'd like to have someone show me the way to make that "Create PDF form" change over to "Here is my PDF form"; please use it.
