no codecs


Just installed Zorin 15 Education and all is great [even got openoffice to install], but when I went to use one [VLC, but all not working] to play a dvd found no codecs were installed with any of the players. How simplest to correct this?

Zorin uses Ubuntu repositories so the explanation at the link below should work.
