Public bug reported:
Affects: totem (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
In some situations, e.g. when I pop in a DVD movie, Totem opens up and shows an
error message like:
"Totem could not play 'file:///dev/hdc'.
Could not determine type of stream."
I assume the actual issue is that Totem/Gstreamer lacks support for some
restricted file format, but a regular user would probably be very
confused.
I recommend something like:
"Could not play XXX. Media format is not recognized: <ID-string>. To
play this file, you might need to install additional file format
support."
