Jaynis, please retry the command, without using sudo. $ /usr/lib/unity-scope-video-remote/unity-scope-video-remote If it answers: "Failed to own name net.launchpad.scope.RemoteVideos. Bailing out." It will mean the scope is already running.
Then, visit the adress: http://videosearch.ubuntu.com/v0/search?test If you see a long line of results beginning with [{"url": "http://videosearch.ubuntu.com/v0 It will mean you can connect to the server. If any of these tests fail, I would recommend purging and re-installing both packages with: $ sudo apt-get purge unity-lens-video unity-scope-video-remote $ sudo apt-get install unity-lens-video unity-scope-video-remote Then, log out and log in. By any chance, do any of you have tested Ubuntu TV a few months ago? It could be an explanation: the old Ubuntu TV files conflict with the video lens. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971473 Title: Unity video lens not showing online sources To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/971473/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
