I’m using Libre Office Impress. When I am working on my slides they look just fine, but when I go to run the slide show a big white block of space with a “pause” icon in the upper left corner appears and I can only see a sliver of the actual slide on the right hand side of the screen. Any suggestions on how to remedy this??
If you have problems with a particular file, share it.
In addition to @gabix, your problem should not be.
It could be a problem in your file and we can not see it from our location.
Please edit your initial question, there you can upload your file here. Thank you.

- On slide 24 the song Let it be is embedded. On my machine this causes a hang up of LibreOffice.
I either was not able to erase the song nor to stop it (in edit mode). In edit mode it (the symbol) shows up only for a flash when triggering the automatic preview for this single slide. - On slide 26 another sound file is embedded (Guitar or similar). No problems in playing, but no chance to edit/erase it nor to play on the Media player.
- I could not register that.
- Some text boxes are larger than the slide, so some text is not readable.
- There are overall 3 songs/music files (mp3 format) embedded but saved in 2 different media folders in your file. (Rename to a ZIP file and open/edit with a compression program.) You can easily extract the 3 audio files and use for rebuilding the presentation as a LibreOffice presentation…
Advice: Build up your file from anew as odp format. Surely you may use the given structures in a “new way”. Check how to embed songs in LO presentations (if embedding works the right way).

EDIT
Some information was corrected, see @LeroyG 's comment (thank you!).
LibreOffice also hangged for me in slide 24, still showing slide 23.
Slide 26 has a few sounds, and works well (thy try with Shift+F5).
