So...rather interesting - I have had this same thing occur again with an older Toshiba Satellite A-100 (0.89 GB RAM; HD 55 GB). After performing updates Jan 23 VLC will not open (does momentarily then closes) to play the videos I have downloaded, however when I go to YouTube these do play properly.
I am now in the process of locating an earlier restore point that will allow the downloaded videos to play properly with VLC. Interestingly I thought I'd go back to the most recent restore point where these downloaded videos were not working, do another Update of LL and check for drivers, however at that most recent restore point I now find that my wifi doesn't connect whereas I recall it working after doing updates just yesterday when this VLC issue started...
Like the other machine if I can locate an adequate restore point where VLC and wifi work I think I will simply not perform any updates in the future.
If any one has any comments or suggestions I will welcome them.
