Sorry for following up my own post, but the laptop results were 
unexpected. Either drag-and-drop or using menu Insert gave the same 
results - both produced an object showing the blue 'film' icon, in the 
design mode, and at the video start when running a slide show. It's a 
recent low-end Dell pentium laptop, Intel integrated graphics. It's 
running the same version of LO/Mint as the desktop I normally use.

Weird.
