If you do resolve this please tell us the solution so that we can add it to our experience bank and help others. None here is an expert in everything but together we can be more than we are individually.

I duly note your,"As I have already said( I think),I don`t know."

Perhaps I have not made myself clear,as I admit my imperfect usage of English. I`ll

try again. There are problems as I have perceived,in VLC and Youtube,in various computers

using various distros. You have my leave to make this a given or not. If you do not,then we are

at full stop in dialogue. Additionally,I have read that some that responded to my thread,have

stated that they do not know,because they "have not seen it". Please forgive me for my

possible misunderstanding,but are we restricted to answers for problems "not seen"?

Is there a conclusion to be made that problems do not exist? I also am in the "I do not know place".

Engrave that in stone. I you have seen it,is it this forum`s policy to avoid

any interest in problems "not seen",because( I hope I`m wrong) that this forum ,"Newbies",

excludes any interest in problems not seen? My view,should there be any interest at all,is

that there a closed door labelled," I don`t know. I haven`t seen it,and I`m not interested."

Is there nothing to be gained by checking beneath the surface of" what I have seen".

If this is so, any suggestion that I`m in the wrong forum,wasting bandwidth and time,will

respectfully have my deference. There another possibility, I hope considered.

There just might be an interest in problems that some Newbie,your truly, encounters

which have not been seen in this group.Otherwise,I fear i waste your time and others.

I`ll stay with Linux. Never did I expect out of box no-problem. Perfection is not obtained

in our real world. In case I did not mention it, VLC and Youtube have given me problems.

My google searches have shown my many references of these problems that "have not been

seen." I `m not looking for a comfort zone. I`ll look elsewhere. Am I in the right forum for

this endeavour, Simple yes or no,please. Who knows? I will go more places looking for

answers for "problems not seen". Why? Because they are there.

P.S. Should there any want for a detailed report on what computers,distros, updates,terminal

commands apps,etc...........,please let me know,or let me know I`m off topic and in violation of

forum rules. I`m too interested in finding these answers to be offended.

Respectfully,

I'd say that if someone knew, you'd have gotten an answer already. As I've
already said, (I think), I don't know.
