How can I convert an OpenOffice Impress presentation to a video without setting up a screen recording? The goal is to have a server that produces an MPEG stream with the presentation. I want to avoid screen recording to avoid having a GUI on that server.

The conversion should either be done with a script (on Linux) or be a very easy-to-use program, so I could ask the user to convert the presentation to video and then upload it to the server.

You can make a Flash video natively in LibreOffice which is a fork of OpenOffice so hopefully this applies to OpenOffice too.

Set your slide transitions to automatic (Slide Show > Slide Transition > Advance Slide > Automatically after...)

Export > Save as type: Macromedia Flash (SWF)
