Assuming you ran the necessary commands and they completed without any errors, starting vlc from a terminal might offer some clues. Ctrl-Alt-t, thenCode:vlc
As per above post if vlc fails to start due to trying to open on an improper or an supported interface then try starting as such
Generally speaking removing, re-installing vlc would have no effect as your issue(s) are likely from local changes. In those cases you could locate & remove vlcrc file, usually found in ~/.config/vlcCode:vlc -Iqt4
(or just remove ~/.config/vlc folder itself
Thank you, yes I thought I did. Now the program started and plays well again. And I see VLSub 0.9.10 under the VLC View menu, but it doesn't open up any search window.
This is what showed up in terminal:
VLC media player 2.1.1 Rincewind (revision 2.1.0-207-g89c9520)

What could I do to activate the extension, anyone?
I used the vlc -Iqt4 command, the program started well and played the video but again, no search window opened.
and this is what showed in terminal:

Is it possible to fix this problem with the extension?
Thank you!
Apparently vlsub needs to be updated to work with vlc 2.1.1, see https://github.com/exebetche/vlsub/issues/28
Thank you, I understood from the link you provided that I should maybe uninstall the vlc player (which wasn't working but kept freezing) and install the 2.0.8 version which still supports the vlsub extension. I found this page:
http://www.oldapps.com/linux/vlc_pla...?system=ubuntu
and downloaded the file, extracted it from the tar.xz file into a file named vlc-2.0.8 but now I don't know what to do with it. How to install it? And should I somehow uninstall the vlsub extension before installing it again after getting this other version of vlc player installed?
Okay, I gave up on the idea of the vlsub extension. I just had a looong session with a more experienced friend, trying to install the older vlc version but
now I just want to find out how to uninstall the vlsub extension
because it's still haunting me in the "View" dropdown list of the newly installed newest version of vlc player. Which still doesn't function, pausing before it even started to play anything.
So if anyone can help me with how to just remove the extension installed following these instructions: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/02/vlsub...earch-and.html I'll fully appreciate!!
Thank you!
