Florian: I don't think rhythmbox is filtering the bad plugins, though any maintainer can confirm it. I think they just filter out those plugins not interesting for rhythmbox, maybe because there's another plugin in rhythmbox already providing such content, or just because the the content provided is of no interest (like plugins providing video, when we are interested on audio, something that have changed in upstream, as you have noticed).
So if a plugin works bad, I think the proper solution is to fix a bug for it, and if it's very urgent, maybe removing the plugin. Using a blacklist isn't a good idea. -- 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 One Hundred Papercuts: Triaged Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I see no good reason why they're not.
