[desktop-discuss] 2.16 multimedia suggestions

[Irene (Shi Ying) Huang]

Hi, Artem 

Right, totem will automatically start up when a VCD/DVD is inserted. But
since currently, totem is not able to play dvd or vcd, we decided to
temporarily disable this feature. 

and I'd be happy to take care of the other suggested features :)
