grilo itself is a hard dependency, and grilo-plugins will need an MIR, since nothing will work without that.  tracker use itself could be made
to fall back to grl-filesystem , but it needs gsettings config "org.gnome.Totem filesystem-paths" probably set to users home directory.

The video tab that is shown at startup will show media from tracker, optical media and bookmarks ( set via  "add local video" dialog). In my
quick hack to make this use grl-filesystem, it will show media from the filesystem-paths key above, but this is not recursive.
Bookmarks don't currently get thumbnails, but there are git patches to fix that.

Title:
  totem 3.14

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Totem as of 3.12 has an entirely new UI based heavily on GNOME3 HIG.
  We would like to ship this for Ubuntu GNOME, however I suspect that
  Ubuntu and the other flavours that ship totem, probably won't want
  these changes. If that is the case, then we might need to fork the
  packaging and upload a new source package totem3 or something.
