Bug Description

The help for Totem states that the following will be found in the "General" preferences panel:

     Proprietary Plugins

          You can add proprietary plugins to handle additional
          movie or audio files. To add proprietary plugins to
          Totem Movie Player, click on the Add Proprietary
          Plugins button.

Problem is, there is no "Add Proprietary Plugins" button. So either there needs to be one, or the helpfile should be fixed.

That option used to be there, but disapeared from the preferences panel sometime between Hoary and Breezy.

Clicking on it was simply opening a nautilus windows into the user's ~/.gnome2/totem-addons so that the user could move codecs into that directory for Totem to use.

Daniel, the upstream bug is about dropping that code, which is the opposite of what the bug submitter is asking for ...

Right, I'll make a comment upstream, that the help has to be updated for this case as well.
