Currently Parole doesn't start/run in 15.10 because of a Clutter problem. By setting the property /video/videosink to "xv" Parole should start again. Please try in order to verify that this bugreport is actually a duplicate of https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11825 Thanks!
Yep it is - forgot about this bug, saw chatter in #x-dev and checked this morning.
Ok, thanks, marking as duplicate then. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 11825 ***
