William, as far as I know the next LTS is still intended to be 18.04.

Our current LTS releases are 12.04, 14.04, and 16.04.

If you wish to upgrade to 14.04 note that Apache2's authentication and

  Firefox refuses any libavcodec version prior to 54.35.1 (unless
  media.libavcodec.allow-obsolete==true).

  Users should not be subjected to this warning, as it is vague (does not 
instruct them how to fix it).
  Ubuntu 14.04 LTS should ship with an updated version of libavcodec.
