[Solved] How to find the sound file name/directory?

Post by Okuman »

I transferred a Impress file(.odp) which includes a sound in the presentation to a new PC.
I found that I have to transfer its sound file also to the new one.

My problem is I need to know the sound file name & directory in old PC.
Please let me know how to get its name from the Impress file.

AOO 4.1.7
Windows 10 Pro
Thank you for your kind support to me.

To F3K Total;

Thank you very much for your prompt advice.
Though your advice did not work for our problem,
we finally found the solution as follows...

The old PC was fortunately alive then we are able to
open the impress file. We found the music was like a
BGM through out the slides from the first page.
So, we checked the first page by right clicking in
"Slides" sub-menu on the left side, then we selected
"Slide Transition".

The "Slide Transition" sub-menu appeared on the right
side. There was the filename in "Sound" section.
To know the directory of the music file, scrolling upper
items in the "Sound" section. There was "Other Sounds...".
By selecting it, the new window was opened and we knew
the directory.

This was our solution and we have learnt that there are
so many ways to insert music in the slides.
This is just for your information that the old PC was never
alive after the above operations.

Thank you very very much again!!!
