Hey guys, I am running a live image of Ubuntu version 16.-4.3 off of a flash drive and have connected another flash drive with videos on it but are not opening in Ubuntu. I am getting error message:
Required plugin could not be found. Videos requires to install plugins to play files of the following types: AC-3 Decoder H.264 decoder
Any way or program to open these videos online somewhere please? I am seeing the videos with extensions .mkv and also .mp4
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

VLC media player works well with Ubuntu. It has it's own decoders and codecs, so should be nothing else to install. It does handle AC-3 and H.264.
But I have no idea how to add it to a live image.
Other members might, or you can go to the Ubuntu website: https://www.ubuntu.com/search?q=vlc+for+ubuntu -
SMplayer has its own codec library included too and it has better performance, probably would work better runningoff a USB boot.
You should also install ubuntu-restricted-extras, ubuntu doesn't come with a lot of codec support by default, which is common in Linux. -
Thx, sorry for the late response, I had inquired about all of this on the Ubuntu forum but was told the restricted extras would need to be installed on each restart. Sm player will not install.
I am trying to install VLC for Ubuntu here but not seeing the actual download?
