Hi im a fairy new linux user
Im trying to navigate to the lua folder in vlc.
When i type
whereis vlc
It said:
vlc: /usr/bin/vlc /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vlc /usr/share/vlc /snap/bin/vlc /usr/share/man/man1/vlc.1.gz
I tried:
cd /usr/bin/vlc
cd ./usr/bin/vlc
cd ~/usr/bin/vlc
Nothing works. How do i get to it?
whereis vlc outputs the paths to the executable, which is a file. But you can only cd to directories.
However, the lua directory is at ~/.local/share/vlc/
cd ~/.local/share/vlc/
/bin/ normally means an executables directory, so /bin/vlc would be an executable file and not a directory
You need to check ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/ and /usr/lib/vlc/lua/
Look at here How do I install VLC extensions?
