Description Jonathan Camilleri 2015-03-25 06:36:55 UTC
I find it difficult to browse through pptx. files on LibreOffice Impress, when I have presentations loaded with video files and large objects incorporated within them.

Some presentation content writers included embedded links and upload the videos on social media however there appears to be the odd case where social media is blocked by firewall software so temporarily one downloads the video and includes it within the presentation.

The problem is that the files are too large for devices which have low volatile memory, for example, my PC has 4GB of ram, and, that is common hardware spec for a PC that is only meant to use office software.  

How is it possible to compress and simplify the presentation?
I would suggest that the most logical method includes saving video files in a separate sub-folder (optionally of course) and the pptx or .odp file only includes links to those sub-folders, which can be transferred using external devices e.g. USB sticks.

Hello,
specify your version of LO. You can upload test file on online storage (google, dropbox, etc..) or here https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/Attachments/Temporary_Storage_for_Big_Files
After that, set back to unconfirmed.
