Title:
  No detailed information on codec in file properties nautilus

Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When Gnome 2 still was in use, I easily could find the codec of for
  example an avi file by right clicking and looking at its properties.
  This was particularly useful when moving an avi file to a multimedia
  player, since not all codecs are supported by media players.

  Now, since Ubuntu 11.10, I have to open the file in for example vlc
  and search for the information I need, only to know if it can play on
  my multimedia player. This is quite a hassle for something that used
  to be very easy in Gnome 2.

  Is this another regression (like not being able to choose an app from
  a custom location to open a file with)?

  It really starts to be frustrating that in Gnome simple things like
  these are overlooked. If it is because of the focus on ease of use, I
  can guarantee this is not an example of 'ease of use'. On the
  contrary, it makes the use of linux more complicated. Not everybody
  knows how to find the information I described, but I'm sure many
  people would benefit having this info available in Nautilus.
