[SOLVED] Can't insert a sound in LibreOffice 4.0.5 Mageia 3

[SOLVED] Can't insert a sound in LibreOffice 4.0.5 Mageia 3

Postby Dupo » Oct 23rd, '13, 00:49

Hi everybody,

when I try to insert a sound (mp3) in LibreOffice 4.0.5 (for example: on a white page of LibreOffice Writer) : insert -> sound and video, LibreOffice is blocked. I must kill LibreOffice. Do you think it's a bug in LibreOffice 4.0.5 version ?

Thanks.

Here it works. Seems like Libreoffice freezes, but during this time it's working to insert the sound file. How long did you wait and how big is that mp3?

Yes.

Ok, I will test it again.

How big is that mp3 ? Some Mega bytes.

I've tested with an mp3 ~6MB, and it takes half a minute until it's finally inserted.

Hi,

thanks. ;)

Do you know why it takes so long ?

Wasn't it much faster before ?

Can't tell, never tried this before. It was much faster before what?

Hi,

ok, it is good now but I have got another problem. I can't resize the sound objet on the page. When I tried to do it, LibreOffice crashed. When I moved this object there is no problem.

That's weird, works here too. Takes quite a few second to resize the icon, not really sure what it's doing there but it doesn't crash.
Please show the output of
Code: Select all
urpmq --list-media active

Hi,

I can't show you my list of media because I use a local repository. But I want to tell you that inserting or resize a multimedia element takes so long time on Magiea 3 LibreOffice. I don't know if the problem come from LibreOffice or Mageia LibreOffice, but I never saw it before (on old versions and on others distributions). I tried to insert and resize a picture element, and it works perfectly.

Hi,

I installed OpenOffice and I uninstalled LibreOffice. LibreOffice must be checked because inserting and resizing of a media element are very slow.

Then please report that as a bug, after searching if it hasn't been reported yet already: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly
