Since I do not use VLC as a default app, I cannot answer your questions regarding its behaviour. I hope other volunteers who know VLC will pitch in to help you.

what do you use
You could try MPV, that seems like a solid player.
Just look in the Software Manager and look around. Plenty to choose from.
Zorin 16 Pro's default = Video (a.k.a. Totem)
I prefer and use Xplayer.
i just installed 2 play they work just but not totem and vlc and mpv auto plays not vlc how weird and kylin player work fine as well it seem to be the software
As two examples:
VLC is built with the QT (toolkit) and Xplayer is built with the GTK (toolkit).
So, they are quite different, under the hood.
whats xplayer by the way
thanks mpv is working just fine and kylin video player to but not totem and vlc
i might have to use mpv because it works the best
One of the X-apps.
It's a media player, like the rest.
im not on ubuntu
Zorin OS is built on Ubuntu.
oh ok thanks i gonna stick with mpv now on my zorin os because totem and vlc dont work on my zorin os 16 they work but they dont auto play when i open it
