Description Stephan Schutter 2019-02-05 21:36:47 UTC
Description:
Attempt to open a You_Exec free PPT with an animated background and you will see that it is a static image instead or animates so sloooow that it is not perceived as a fluid video in the background. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download any of these https://youexec.com/powerpoint-video-backgrounds
2. Open it in Libre Office
3. Change to presenter mode... no so pretty... 

Actual Results:
Sputter and studder... video does not play smoothly if at all. 

Expected Results:
As in powerpoint: a smooth beautiful animation in the background of the slides.

I tested these templates with the video background in WPS office (Chinese Office Suite to counter MS Office). It animates the background smoothly on linux.

I do not reproduce in Windows. Please also always test with daily master from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/ or more easily http://libreoffice.soluzioniopen.com/index.php/daily-version/.
Please try with and without OPenGL and HW acceleration in LO options -View.
Please make a screen cast.
