Public bug reported:

Under the Movie menu, there is an item to "Watch TV on DVB Adapter 0".

If I select it, I get a popup dialog appears which says:

Totem cannot play this type of media (Digital Television)
because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it.

Please install the necessary plugins and
restart Totem to be able to play this media.

However, neither this message nor the help documentation mention
what plugins are needed.  At other times Totem has offered to go
look for a plugin, but it didn't do this either.

Finally, under Edit / Plugins, there is nothing listed which sounds
remotely applicable.  Presumably they are the already loaded plugins
and if I could get the right plugin for digital TV watching, it would appear
there.
