You should probably try the last dev build if you want the last fixs (and bugs): https://ci.popcorntime.sh/view/All/job/Popcorn-Time-Desktop/lastSuccessfulBuild/

You will need to remove vlc apt version and/or reinstall vlc snap version else it will detect both but use the most recently installed.

Solved: I should install vlc under apt-get and not using snap packages.
