I am new at this (Ubuntu) and I cannot get it to work. These were my steps: 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:brousselle/slowmovideo

Then: 

sudo apt-get update

And I got this:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/brousselle/slowmovideo/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found

As you can see in https://launchpad.net/~brousselle/+archive/ubuntu/slowmovideo, there is no slowmovideo package for Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty). However, you get slowmovideo using the PPA at https://launchpad.net/~ichthyo/+archive/ubuntu/video instead by doing the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ichthyo/video
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install slowmovideo

    Just a note: sometimes PPAs have many packages, and it's hard to see for which version are there ones. So they could also open the [½ way URL they see in the error](http://ppa.launchpad.net/brousselle/slowmovideo/ubuntu/dists/), and check if there's a name of their Ubuntu version. – Hi-Angel Jun 09 '16 at 04:02
