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.
