I dumped totem completely in favour of vlc on my own system. Ten or so
years ago, when I was using Red Hat, I dumped Gnome in favour of
Enlightenment, after gnome seemed to become a resource hog. It's
better now but with so many developers, each working on their own
little bit of things, uniformity is hard to come by.

Aptitude is great, but it's not a panacea for problems. It's just
another tool in the toolbox.

Really, check the mime types Nautilus has registered. There was no
mention that video streaming wasn't working only that Nautilus was
malfunctioning.
