From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm a user of Impress, and I have a bunch of friends that have settled on it for their presentations, too.

We are generally happy, but for the video side. When you insert a video in your presentation, there is no way to pause and rewind, look for a point of the video. It is a known issue, open for 10 years, and we were wondering if there is a fundamental reason or obstacle for this feature.

Who's up for implementing it? 😁

I'm sure a lot of people will be infinitely thankful!!

It was probably not a version 1 feature initially and nobody had been sufficiently motivated and skilled enough to fix it since

Why are you posting this here? This is not Linux specific.

Better ask on the bug tracker or on any libreoffice related forum/subreddit/lemmy instance.

Well, if they hadn't posted here, I, for one, would never have become aware of the issue, and I'm glad I have!

I saw a Libreoffice community but wasn't very active.. so I thought here I could find users of the software and experts on the possible technical issue. Hope this doesn't bother too much.
