--- Comment #8 from NoWorries <sbc_hates_spam at yahoo.com.au> ---
I am very pleased to report that I now have Impress working as it should with a
video.  When I start soffice with the command line: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3
soffice, I initially got odd behaviour, but it was resolved by opening the file
rather than selecting from the soffice list.

What I now get is:

:~$ SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 soffice        

(soffice:4211): Gdk-WARNING **: 20:02:08.838: XSetErrorHandler() called with a
GDK error trap pushed. Don't do that.

I have now edited the way "K" starts LibreOffice by adding
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 before each call of Impress, writer, calc etc.

I am now wondering how this change can be implemented so that for the next
update of LibreOffice, these steps do not have to be followed.  I am also
puzzled by the above file error messages.

Before making this change, I was almost driven up the wall with editing I was
doing with impress.  I lost cursor control after doing an unformulated paste. 
I have just come back from testing an odp Impress file.  Because of the
troubles I had, I used my Kubuntu 18.04 system.  I now have the confidence to
use 19.04 tomorrow.

Thanks very much or your help.
