You may want to run loimpress --strace mypresentation.odp in a terminal, where 
mypresentation.odp is the file that has the media embedded in it and see if 
you find what's going wrong by fishing in the strace.log file created in your 
/home (run tail -f ~/strace.log).

If the error is not obvious you could ask here for help to decipher the strace 
output and of course in the LO IRC channel or M/L .
