Hi,
apart from 4 icons on the main toolbar, I don't see any menu bar with e.g. the File or Edit menu:
avidemux_missing_menu_bar.png
I tried the .deb binary from the Ubuntu ppa repo, avidemux_2.8.0.appImage and avidemuxLinux_GLIBC_2.28_amd64_220207_1746.app but the menu bar is missing everywhere.
Any ideas?
Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Display Manager: lightdm
Desktop Environment: xfce
Thanks
Chris
Some Ubuntu own global menu stuff installed and messing with the menu?
Not that I'm aware of, I just installed updates regularly.

dpkg -l xfce4-appmenu-plugin
:o
Ok, I installed xfce4-appmenu-plugin (which uninstalled unity-gtk2-module), vala-panel-appmenu and vala-panel-common but I still don't see the menu bar of avidemux.
I noticed that the menu bar is displayed when I switch to the standard Ubuntu window manager.
For some unknown reason, it works now :-)
Thanks a lot for your support!

Of course, I meant that neither xfce4-appmenu-plugin nor any other global menu implementation should be present. The command would just show whether the package is installed.
Ok, I "read" too fast and assumed that it has to be available.
Anyhow, both methods work now: if xfce4-appmenu-plugin is installed, the xfce4 indicator plugin crashes as soon as I start avidemux - but this can be fixed by hiding the Application Indicators (from the list of known indicators).
The other way, removing xfce4-appmenu-plugin (and unity-gtk2-module) works too.
Thanks a lot for your help!
