It is rather amusing, that ubuntu prides itself as "it just works" distro - yet grilo and upnp in totem work out of box in debian, and someone decided to explicitly disable in ubuntu...
Add grilo back. UPNP and friends should just work out of box, currently people write horrible instructions like the one below to make it happen: http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/240-ubuntu-precise-upnp-dlna-client Instead, just apply this patch to totem packaging. ** Patch added: "Re-add grilo support." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/1035701/+attachment/3281688/+files/fix-grilo.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to totem in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1035701 Title: grilo plugins should be enabled in Totem Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I see no good reason why they're not.
