LO Version: 6.1.2.1, OS: Mac OS X 10.14 - have updated my office machine yesterday, works almost fine. In short, it offers (for free) exactly what Microsoft Office offers for. LibreOffice includes a spreadsheet creator, text edition tool, presentation creator, graphic editor, formula creator, and a database creation tool. This is what we offer you here, the free open-source alternative that is thought to be the new OpenOffice. I have tried leaving it in this state for several minutes, but nothing seems to change. When the Verifying 'LibreOffice' progress bar gets to the end, CoreServicesUIAgent jumps to 100% cpu and stays there until I force quit it. So the options are there, but it does cost some effort to present your videos like this.I am not able to start LibreOffice 5.1.3 on a MacBook Pro (mid 2012) with OSX Yosemite 10.10.5. In the embedded player (top right) are options provided for that. Apart from providing download options, we also embedded an itheora video player in the webpage, which works with most browsers, either with several options for multimedia plugins that many browsers already have, or with Java. We have published them in Ogg Theora, see for example the lecture by Jon 'maddog' Hall. What we have done in the FTA is produce several Guest Lecture videos. The trouble is, as you have recognised, with video formats in particular. Indeed for the course books all are under Free Cultural Works accepted licenses, and the complete software stack to run the online campus, community portal, peer review tools etc are all under Free Software licenses. Here I would like to share the same struggle we have experienced at the Free Technology Academy, which also embraces the four freedoms applied to both software and educational materials, and for standards for that matter ( see about FTA). First of all I must applaud Kim for this very instructive page about the reasons for using Libre Software in education, and also the struggle of an educational project like WikiEducator to adopt them for the full 100%.
