BBC.COM video will not play after latest VLC update

edit

@sideburns: Thanks for clearing that; that's what must have happened as one post is still up. I thought it was because the question had already been posed and my post was deleted because of that; and yet when I searched for the "duplicate post," of course nothing came up. I'm grateful to be wrong in this case.

@florian If I can find the url to a video (a very rare ocurrence as they don't show readily show up) and I paste it into VLC, even more rarely will it stream. I can count on one hand the number of times that's actually worked for me. I wish I knew the secret to ferreting out video urls so I could play them on VLC sometimes.

@everyone: I must confess I've been chasing the wrong rainbow or solution to this one. I have uBlock Origin installed on my Firefox; and I somehow must have blocked BBC videos with it. My deep apologies, because just in the way it happened, I assumed somehow, somewhere the VLC update must have blocked whatever codec BBC uses. When I reset uBlock and tried the videos again, voila! they played. I feel pretty stupid over this whole affair and I thank you all for your contributions and time. I now have a 'note' on my desktop to check uBlock first before looking anywhere else for a solution. Again, my apologies and heartfelt thanks with your patience.

David, Both are installed, rebooting FF did not bring it back. Funny you got this because I was informed by an Admin my post had been rejected. :(
