Hello,

I'm on Linux Mint, If I'm placing the extracted files into the "plug-ins" directory, the "Video" tab was not appearing in the menu bar. I took the files from Github. It look like if the platform .zip (or in my case .tar) the files from the repository.

Is that correct to use those files?

Thanks,

Guillaume

As far as I can tell, if you install from GitHub you have to rebuild the package, it's not just a matter of putting files in the expected directories. See the README file  (or check the Homepage of the project, which is built from the README).
