Describe the bug

After completing Debian installation steps (tried both through git and making of tarball) & restart of VLC (and ever restart of PC) no change in VLC interface - cannot find options to utilize the plug-in.

1) [Preferences]->[Show settings]->[All] 2) [Preferences]->[Control interfaces]: there is no option "Pause play on mouse click".

default ubuntu snap-store install on 64bit system.

Is that a Snap VLC by any chance?

victorkitov commented 1 year ago

I suppose yes. It's installed to /snap/bin/vlc.

See https://github.com/nurupo/vlc-pause-click-plugin#snap

victorkitov commented 1 year ago

I see, thank you. Then the issue is closed.

nurupo commented 1 year ago

I suggest using non-Snap VLC, e.g. from the package repository or Flathub - the plugin works with those.

victorkitov commented 1 year ago

After removing VLC from Ubuntu Software (snap installation) and reinstalling VLC using sudo apt install vlc the plugin works like charm. Thanks!
