Bug Description

Whenever I try to play any media file using totem in terminal , although it successfully plays the file but it throws the following error :

manish@D9L412M1:~/Videos$ totem "School.avi"

(totem:2335): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: Read/writable property 'object' on class 'ZeitgeistDpPlugin' has type 'TotemObject' which is not exactly equal to the type 'GObject' of the property on the interface 'PeasActivatable'

Other player (vlc) is all fine with this file as well as any other multimedia file, but totem always throws the error.

In my case, I have videos that will not play at all (though they played fine in Lucid) and Nautilus cannot display a properties window for the affected files. Other files play the audio but no video. Some files play fine.
