This is what I have to do to get it to work



#!/bin/bash

#add VLC (Totem has been removed and Mplayer added)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lucid-bleed/ppa

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-pulse mozilla-plugin-vlc

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lucid-bleed-ppa-lucid.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

echo "now run VLC and set the preferences to allow only one instance."
