Bug Description
Ubuntu Ringtail daily 20130128
1. Right-click on a video file in the file manager.
2. After opening the file, choose "Help" > "About".
What you see:
1. "Open With Videos"
2. "Videos" "Videos" "Totem Website".
What's wrong with this:
1. Open a video with videos? That doesn't make any sense. I have a Videos folder, but this video is not in that folder.
2. The window is titled "About Videos", but doesn't tell me anything about videos. And then a wild Totem appears.
This is a regression: In Ubuntu 12.10 and earlier, the program was called "Movie Player", which was pretty accurate.

Thank you for your suggestion. However, the changes you are requesting aren't really a bug and require more discussion, which should be done on an appropriate mailing list or forum. http:// www.ubuntu. com/support/ community/ mailinglists might be a good start for determining which mailing list to use.
I think that https:/ /launchpad. net/~unity- design can be good
