Install the latest version of vlc in Ubuntu via PPA

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/stable-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc

Through the Ubuntu Software Center, you can download and install any software in Ubuntu. Download Ubuntu software center from here.

Usage of Software Center should be self-explanatory, but you can also use the web interface:

VLC in Software Center
Adobe Flash plugin in Software Center
Ubuntu restricted extras in Software Center
