Description:

*Totem (Gnome Video)* does not play any video on each Gnome setup without *gnome-music*.

After starting from console, i've managed to find cause: lack of grilo-plugins.
So, please add grilo-plugins as a dependency for totem too, not just for gnome-music,
because when you choose not to install gnome-music, grilo-plugins package will not be
installed also.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
Gnome 3.16, Gnome 3.18, Gnome 3.18.1


Steps to reproduce:
This task depends upon

When you say it doesn't play any video, if you pass it a specific filename, it doesn't work? grilo-plugins is already an optional dependency, for "Media discovery".

Starting from console and providing a specific file name did the trick. But installing grilo-plugins works better, because you can play videos from GUI menu.

So the optional dep really is optional. Everything looks good.
