OK, after uninstalling VLC complete with configuration files (it also
uninstalled hdhomerun_config_gui!) with Synaptic, I reinstalled VLC from
Ubuntu Software Center. It offered the SNAP version which installed but
would not run. I uninstalled it and installed a second version of VLC
from the Ubuntu software center. This installed and runs, but also will
not display video from a DVD. I believe now that this problem lies with
VLC, not hd_homewrun_gui (other than installing an incompatible version
of VLC for 16.04 with latest updates).
