Public bug reported:
If Totem (2.17.92) is missing a codec, it gives a message like:
"The playback of this movie requires a MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer
plugin which is not installed."
But if I search "Add/Remove Applications" (no 'about' available, Feisty
Herd 4) for "MPEG-2" or "MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer plugin" I get
"There is no matching application available." which we know is not true
- so the problem is the search function not responding well to Totems
message. (It should return "GStreamer ffmpeg video plugin" and others)
Could this regarded as a "collaboration" bug?
