after upgrade from ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04 I can't download subtitles anymore

[Mondane]

In the previous version of Totem that was shipped with Ubuntu 14.10, there was the option to download subtitles. Those were then fetched from opensubtitles I believe. In Ubuntu 15.04, that option is now missing, I have to search for the subtitles myself and load them.

The old situation was much easier because the search is done on a file hash which almost always resulted in correct subtitles. Can this functionality be added again. (And why is it removed in the first place?)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The feature is still here, but strangely it seems you need to go in fullscreen mode to access it (in the top right menu)
There are probably several menus items that are missing in standard view

Thank you, I've found the option to download the subtitles indeed in full screen.

About that menu in full screen, I did saw the option 'Subtitles' with a right pointing arrow. Since I'm used that hovering above such an item, automatically opens the submenu whoch didn't happen, I believed there were no subitems. After really clicking on 'Subtitles', the menu was changed with a new submenu.

This makes me wonder if the change in interface is done for touch devices. In those situations, the new interface makes sence.

So the bug report should be changed to something like 'Menu options missing in the global menu' and perhaps a new bug report should be made to address the 'no submenu on hovering the fullscreen menu items'.

Do you agree?

As stated in a similar bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/1447224, I suspect that appmenu is responsible for the missing menu items.
