[Iain Lane <iain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Uploaded with a note about the behaviour changes. We think that on
balance being able to select languages outweighs these, but it is up to
you dear SRU team to decide.

** Description changed:

- After upgrading to Ubuntu 15.04 neither Totem nor VLC are able to select
- different audio tracks or subtitles when playing videos with multiple
- tracks. This is a regression from Ubuntu 14.10 where playback of such
- files was working as expected. I tried this on multiple machines running
- 15.04 and with various media, mostly MKV videos but also AVI videos or
- simply DVDs.
+ [ Description ]
  
- On Totem the expected functionality in the application menu is missing
- or the menu item is just empty.
+ Under Unity, the menu items "Language" and "Subtitles" do not show
+ available languages and subtitles that can be selected.
  
- On VLC the menu items are present but always disabled.
+ [ Fix ]

Bug description:
  [ Description ]

  Under Unity, the menu items "Language" and "Subtitles" do not show
  available languages and subtitles that can be selected.

  [ Fix ]

  Port to GMenu, which can correctly show the menu items.

  NOTE that this removes the menu from full screen under Unity.

  [ QA ]

  Test under both Unity and GNOME shell (and optionally other DEs) that
  you can load a video (e.g.
  http://trailers.divx.com/divx_prod/divx_plus_hd_showcase/Sintel_DivXPlus_6500kbps.mkv
  [large - 819M]) with subtitles and languages and select between them.

  [ Development fix ]

  Identical & already uploaded.

  [ Regression potential ]

  Due to the nature of this change, you won't get the app menu when full
  screened under Unity any more - langs and subtitles can only be
  selected from the regular menu which is visible when not in full
  screen.

  No other regressions are expected, so if you find any please report in
  this bug.
