Trying to watch kids videos from my daughter's school, when I click on it, all it shows is a black play screen with a little VLC "traffic cone" in the middle. Can't do anything except download it to my desktop, which I don't want to do for all these song videos. Just want to watch it from the webpage. Went to add-ons and changed VLC Web Plug-in to say "Always Activate" but no luck. Please help, thanks!

I downloaded the most current Adobe Flash Plugin, but still no luck, not sure where to go from here.

Hello, there are no more Windows updates and I just updated my VLC software, still no luck. Still get the little VLC traffic cone icon in the middle of a black screen where the video should play. Can I change the settings to view the videos on a different software instead of VLC? Maybe it will work then.
