I just installed Ubuntu 18.04. When I try to play a movie DVD I get an error message that I need to install the dvd ac-3 (atsc a/52) decoder. I can't find this software and instructions on how to install it. I can play movies on the internet, hard drive, and flash drive but not the DVD player. Any help would be appreciated.
I just installed 17.04 and I can't figure out how to Make a Link to a file or a folder that I can copy to my desktop. In 16.04 I could right click on a file and select "Make a link." The Make a Link option is not there in 17.04 so what is the new procedure? Thanks for your help
I have a folder that contains 2 Gig of photos for Shotwell that I want to backup using Grive. I created a Link to the folder and moved the link to the Google Drive folder. When I run Sync Now, it processes for about 15 seconds, deletes the Link entry from the Google Drive folder and says Synchronization is complete. No data is uploaded to Googledrive.com.
I have tested this procedure with a small folder and it works fine but fails on the large folder.
Shotwell can't find its source photos if I move this folder to Google Drive folder. Is there a way to direct Shotwell to the photo folder in the Google Drive folder?
I am using Ubuntu 14.04. I would appreciate any help on this problem.
