When you open multiple files with Totem, they are put in a queue and will play after each other. The previous and Next buttons still work, but there is no way to see the playlist or to edit it.
Get rid of the playlist functionality entirely or make the playlist view / sidebar accessible via the menu or preferences. The implementation as it stands now provides is confusing and has unexpected behavior. So, this is a bug, since the user experience is broken and it should be reported upstream as such. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to totem in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1600606 Title: Totem is missing the playlist.
