Bug#587204: Doesn't Play Audio in PPS/PPT Slides
Package: openoffice.org-impress
Version: 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have observed this same problem in my Squeeze system. I don't
work with pps/ppt, but my mother likes to listen to those spammy
mails that her friends send her. So, I've played a little bit
around to see if I could find an easy way for her to listen
to the audio in pps/ppt, and I have observed several issues:
1- Some pps/ppt can be opened with MPlayer or VLC just as though
they were sound files, and you can listen the audio. The reason
why this happens must be complicated, because some can only be
listened through MPlayer, some through VLC, and some are not
recognized as sound files.
2- There is a group of pps/ppt that, after being opened by
OpenOffice, yiels one or several .wav files in /tmp. Such files
are the audio track. So, OO seems to recognise the sound, but
for some reason can't play it.
I've got examples of these two behaviours; if you think it
can be useful, I can provide them.
Thanks!
Al.
