Package: pdf-presenter-console
Version: 4.0.7-1
Severity: important

Hello!

As soon as I upgraded to pdf-presenter-console/4.0.7-1, I began
experiencing a really really bad regression regarding movie playback.

Suppose to have a PDF presentation (created with LaTeX and Beamer)
that includes movies incorporated with the following LaTeX code:

  
\newcommand{\includeavi}[2]{\movie[loop]{\includegraphics[#1]{figs/#2}}{#2.avi}}
  [...]
  \includeavi{width=0.73\textwidth}{mymovie}

When pdf-presenter-console/4.0.7-1 shows the presentation, something
awkward happens, as soon as the page incorporating the movie is reached:
the movie is expanded full screen and covers the actual presentation
page. The movie may be played, but there seems to be no way to make it
disappear again. Hitting [space] or [PageUp] or [PageDown] seems to
have no effect on the presentation screen. On the presenter console,
the preview of the next slide changes, hence I assume that the other
slides of the presentation are actually shown, but they are masked
by the expanded movie!

In conclusion there seems to be no way to correctly show a presentation
incorporating movies...

pdf-presenter-console/4.0.6-1 works as expected.

Could you please forward my bug report upstream?

Thanks for your time.
Bye!
