Obscure kids (non animated) movie/film series from the 90's or so
When I was young, I had a random VHS tape of a movie that really confused me. It could have been a mini-series because it seemed like it had some references to other things in flash back that had to do with the weird story. I don't think it was a Disney movie or anything.
The strange story:
two young adult/ teenage kids were on a spaceship, a guy and and girl.
they had to take care of large alien eggs for some reason
the eggs hatched at some point
the guy and girl have to teach the adorable alien babies the alphabet or something with large foam cut outs of letters (I didn't understand that point at all)
somehow they have to evacuate the ship and use the letters to somehow move the alien babies (still sitting in their egg shells)
in another plot, a black guy gets stuck in some sort of inter-dimensional junkyard and has to repair some sort of thing like a suit or ship. Then some off-screen thing comes and hurts him more.
in a weird flashback sequence, the guy from the ship has to run through a strange forest to get somewhere because some old lady told him to
the black guy chases him and then gets trapped in the inter-dimensional junk yard
And that's basically all I remember.

Do you remember if it was originally in English, or could if have been dubbed?

This feels very, vaguely familiar. Can you recall what the aliens looked like? How big/small were they? What country were you in where you found this video?

The aliens were big about as tall as the people, with big, cute eyes. I was in an asian country, I don't remember how I got the VHS tape

Could this be part of the Josh Kirby Time Warrior Series?
I've been going crazy trying to find it and it might match your story.
