This page describes Video Tests that we've run with LibreOffice on Windows to test our media support.
- HINT: For a summary of supported media types, look at the tables on the Media Support/Summary page.

Video Formats Test Results
REMEMBER: On Windows we use DirectShow for video playback. If there is not a DirectShow filter present for a particular codec or Windows Media Player cannot play a particular file, LibreOffice probably won't be able to play that file.
Video: 5.3.6.1 / 5.4.2.2 / 6.0 alpha 1
Yousuf (Jay) ran tests on these systems on 2017-10-21:
- Windows XP without K-Lite Codec Pack and LibreOffice 5.3.6.1
- Windows 7 with and without K-Lite Codec Pack 13.6.0 Standard and LibreOffice 5.4.2.2
- Windows 8.1 with K-Lite Code Pack 12.2.2 Full and LibreOffice 6.0 alpha 1
Results:
- Without K-Lite Codec Pack installed, Windows XP and 7 could playback the AVI and MPG video files.
- With K-Lite Codec Pack installed, Windows 7 and 8.1 could playback all video files, except for ASF and WMV.
- With K-Lite Codec Pack installed, MPGs with MPEG-2 Video will only playback audio. [Bug 105168]
- The full results can be found on this Google Spreadsheet.
Video: 4.3.4.1
Note: The results below did not work due to bug 113322.
Jay and Jay's friend ran some tests:
- Windows 7
- Klite codec pack 10.6.5 (Jay used k-lite mega codec pack 10.7.1)
- TDF build of LibreOffice 4.3.4.1
General results: Did not work
Jay repeated the test with 5.0 master (daily) from 2012-12-23, w/the same results.
