Description:
I have slide shows with embeded video files from previous versions of 
LibreOffice / Impress and they all worked well. If I play the video files with 
Ubuntu 18.04 and LibreOffice 6.0.3.2 they show flickering white stripes. the 
stripes are about 1 centimeter wide and move up and down in the picture of the 
video.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Embed a video file in a slide show.
2. Play the slide show / the video.

Actual Results:
The video plays but shows a disrupted picture with whiteish flickering stripes.

Expected Results:
The video should play as it is in a video player whithout a disrupted picture.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Two questions (three maybe).
Types of video content and when you say from older versions of libreoffice, how 
old?

I tried with a couple of Impress files made with 5.4.7, with 3 different videos
types mp4 file with mp4 H.264, ogv  with Theora and webm  with VP8.

They worked without a problem under 5.4.7 and 6.0.5, using Ubuntu 18.04.

I got some older ones in a backup, 4.x versions, but I am interested in
the video type in the file giving you problems.

Thanks, setting this to needinfo for the moment.

It doesn't matter what kind of video files as far as I figered out it
happens to any kind of file. I uploaded an examaple here:

In makind the example I figured out, that it happens to new
presentations too. So it happens not only to old presentations but to
new ones as well.

IDK - that test file actually crashed both 6.0.5 and 6.1 in my
environment.

Extracted the media files, the two .flv files work fine stand alone, but
the .mpeg crashes the media player in my OS every time (not just in
Impress).

Speaking of which if I create a new Impress file and drop in one of the
.flv files the new impress file works fine and the video plays fine.

If I try to add the .mpeg file, using 6.0.5 than Impress hangs.

Also, trying to check the properties of the Billy Elliot.mpeg file
crashed gnome 'Files' twice.

so, it is looking like the mpeg file is the culprit and the OS support
changed.

The .mpeg plays fine in Impress slideshow for me. No stripes, no crash.

Inserting that .mpeg into a new Impress file crashes Libo consistently.

On the other hand, I just tired opening that file with OpenShot and
voila it is playing like a champ. Now I am scratching my head.

You have created a monster!! :)

Please copy and paste here the contents of LibreOffice's Help - About.
This allows us to know more about your system.

You might also try with an appimage of a pre-release (6.1) or a daily
build (6.2): https://libreoffice.soluzioniopen.com/

Ok, perhaps it is something related to Ubuntu and gtk3. Try this:

1. Open terminal
2. Give this command: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk libreoffice
3. Open your Impress file and see how the videos play

Step 2 launches your Ubuntu-packaged LibreOffice so it uses gtk2 for the
interface instead of gtk3.

Ah, then your appimage test proves that this is fixed in 6.1!

oh no, I gess it isn't planed that LO 6.1 lands in Ubuntu 18.04. That
means I have to fiddle around with an manual upgrade to 6.1 which is

Based on the results so far, this seems to be an Ubuntu-only bug. You should 
report it to them: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice
Tell them that the problem does not appear for you with the appimage.

If in the future it turns out not to be strictly Ubuntu-only, we can
change the status.
