[gfysty! <g7265899@xxxxxxxxx>]

Excuse my language, it was late and i was quite upset on the "broken" Fullscreen-Easteregg -so to speak- that this update meant for me and all others that updated and were used to have a context-menu in Fullscreen.
I actually didn't even noticed there was such a bug, cause i usally use Totem in Fullscreen, until i checked it today.

Nevertheless this isn't a fix, you take a bug fix it and in reverse create another one, this is messy bugfixing if you ask me, and i guess there will be more 'upset' people coming once this update has come around 100%.
The Problem beeing that you lose the every kind of interaction within fullscreen except for the very basic stuff, i could totally live with having to go into windowed-mode if it was just for the subs's but  Maximize/Scale/ etc..

For me Totem used to be  a tool i didn't even think about touching, but
after the mayor-UI Changes it became a really straight-forward player,
minimalistic yet intuitively easy to use, this update basically
destroyed exactly that intuitiveness  that i really started to love for
me, so much so that i rarely use VLC anymore, hope this explains a bit
why i reacted the way i reacted :)


Have a nice day folks!

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.
