* [gentoo-user] Embed video into LO 4.0 presentation

  Hello!
  After a recent upgrade to LibreOffice 4.0.0.3 Impress refuses to
import a video file in .mpg format. I had no such problems with LO-3.6
before. Maybe some dependencies have also changed -- I don't know.
  So, my question is: what is necessary to install in order to be able
to embed video files into Impress presentations and display those files?

  Thank you!
    Vladimir.

ISTR this question came up not too long ago. Have you searched the list
archives?

Is it possible to be totally partial?

  Yes, I searched Gentoo-related lists and LibreOffice lists, but
unfortunately, did not find the answer. There were some reports about
earlier versions of LO, but in my case the earlier version worked fine.

  In fact I have found the same problem mentioned in this post:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7229114.html#7229114
on Gentoo forums, but no solution is actually suggested there. The
users say that the reason it happens is a transition from ffmpeg to
libav, but this seems a bit strange to me, because I always believed
that libav provides the compatible functions to those in ffmpeg, and it
makes it possible for the applications written with ffmpeg functions in
mind be built against libav. Am I wrong?

  Regards,
    Vladimir
