Ubuntu just won't open Video Files. I have tried different formats and different players as well. It doesn't even open the player.
When I open vlc and smplayer from gui nothing happens, No Loading.
through terminal when I open vlc:
darkseider@DARKPC:~$ vlc
VLC media player 3.0.4 Vetinari (revision 3.0.4-0-gf615db6332)
[000055c87f971570] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
[000055c87fa4c840] skins2 interface error: cannot instantiate dialogs provider
[000055c87f9754e0] main playlist: playlist is empty
[000055c87fa4c840] [cli] lua interface: Listening on host "*console".
and opening smplayer gives:
darkseider@DARKPC:~$ smplayer
smplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdouble-conversion.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This is getting really frustrating. Please help me. Thank You!!

Consider to reinstall both players with:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall vlc smplayer
and also reinstall the package with libdouble-conversion.so.1 library:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libdouble-conversion1
