Never mind, I found the answer from a variation of my first google searches.In case anyone else encounters this problem, here's the solution. cd /usr/lib/locale...then on next terminal line....sudo ln -s en_US.utf8 en_US (substitute your region's abbreviation for US if needed).

Somehow, the most recent Ubuntu update screwed up the python locale settings. Anyone have an idea how to fix this? Here's a copy from my terminal of what happens when I open Arista Transcoder, Open Shot and Freevo.... arista-gtk (process:1880): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
