Public bug reported:
So after upgrading to 8.10, VLC doesn't work the way it did in the past.
Bugs:
- can't play online audio streams such as .pls files
- when playing videos it's unable to have the video in the same window as the
player, instead it always externalizes it.
Results of terminal when playing video in VLC
