.odp to .pdf video can not playing

Hello, please take a look, thank you.

Version: 7.5.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: ca8fe7424262805f223b9a2334bc7181abbcbf5e

I can’t upload the 1.5MB sample file because the file size is over 4MB (I think it’s a bug on ask.libreoffice.org). The link is at Comment.

Sorry, that file is too big (maximum size is 4 MB)

When I try Export to PDF, I see that the video doesn’t work in PDF viewers.

Update: Typo

Have you tried viewing in Adobe Reader? Not every pdf reader can read video, see resolved bug Bug 105093 - ODF export to PDF, embedded video is not handled

Yes. With the newest Adobe Acrobat Reader it says

The media requires an additional player. Please click ‘Get Media Player’ to download the correct media

Then the button leads to 404 page. Please test it with the link just provided

Try opening the pdf with Firefox, that has a media player in it

Firefox display the video as an image, so does Edge and PDF Xchange

Acrobat Reader crashes when I try to play the video in the pdf but it does call Windows Media player so I’m calling that a success for embedding by LibreOffice, but a fail in Acrobat, see https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/acrobat-dc-crashes-play-embedded-video/m-p/11843233#M298879

I switched graphics to Nvidia from integrated and I got further so I guess it might be graphics issue or Java issue.

A solution for you as it seems to explicitly consider:

1 Only Adobe PDF viewer considers videos

2 Adobe PDF viewer calls this one to play the video, but that one
resulting in a 404 page.

Thank you very much!
