vlc - Videos not playing in Ubuntu 16.04 - Ask Ubuntu


i searched, , searched , searched more hours no avail.

i tried using firefox, chrome , chromium, , tried downloading flash, pepper flash, using html5 , slew of other options. looked here, @ documentation, reddit , can't find sensible answer works.

videos load, don't play.

what's work around? have able watch video on youtube?

first day trying linux/ubuntu , i'm tad frustrated.

edit:

adam:

first command

package: flashplugin-installer status: install ok installed priority: optional section: contrib/web installed-size: 58 maintainer: ubuntu developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com> architecture: amd64 multi-arch: foreign source: flashplugin-nonfree 

second command output

dpkg-query: package 'adobe-flashplugin' not installed , no information available use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) examine archive files, , dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) list contents. 

third comman g streamers:

it's arcane , long. start message though:

warning: apt not have stable cli interface. use caution in scripts. 

angel:

that worked! no audio though....

another edit:

now can't acess os. vm asks password upon reboot, seems login, goes straight login screen again (password correct).
