Description: GTK+ based RSS video aggregator
 Democracy Player is a platform for Internet television and video. It allows you to download and watch videos from RSS feeds (including podcasts, video blogs, and BitTorrent feeds).
-------------------------------------------------
Possibly it should Recommend libxine-ffmpeg, which provides more codec support, but a dependency on xine-ui is incorrect.

Finally, the democracyplayer package should (hopefully) soon be replaced with a Miro package anyway.
