        Have you installed dbus-x11?

          no and unable to be located with the apt-get install. Do I need to edit the default repositories that came with the latest antix core 17.1

            no capital X – apt-get install dbus-x11 (as I wrote above)

                Post the readouts of the above 2 commands.

                  it seems VLC does not play mov files

                  https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-play-MOV-files-on-VLC
                  so I replaced the file with IMG_2831.webm and I get nothing but this message in the xterm per picture

                      Clearly not. Why do you ask?

                          Have you installed all the needed media codecs?
                          Does playing an avi file work (not as root)?
                          Why are your videos owned by root?

                            A1. no i thought vlc supports codecs automatically. how to install the codecs? apt-get install codecs?
                            A2. I ran spacefm as user without su or sudo then I browser to the downloaded avi in the Downloads folder and it worked.
                            A3. I do not know why my videos are owned by root? what do you recommend?

                                1. I don’t use vlc, so no idea if it needs extra codecs.
                                2. Good, avi works out of the box.
                                3. Nor do I.

                                  for some unknown reason the files are working from the spacefm file manager. I guess the post is closed
