Sound and Picture Issues

PreviousDouble Icons in PlankNextGhost Updates

In rare cases, you may come across the sound and picture issues in the media apps. For example, no sound or picture in the Video app.

A possible fix to that issue is the media codecs installation.

Open your Terminal and run:

sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras

One more solution (not confirmed, but some say it works) is to install another media app via Flathub (for example, ) and then remove it if not needed.
