BTW, is the official name still "Totem Movie Player", or has it changed for "Totem Media Player"?! Is it still looking like this?

2.28.0-2 in Debian just says "Movie Player" in the menu bar, but "Totem Movie Player" in the About box. No use of Media Player, so I can definitely understand the original poster's frustration.

I already explained it is often called Media Player, even in the previous release notes.

I can see that it is wrong. However, it is just used as an excuse to talk about Mono

Showing what some other OS does, whatever.

Do you happen to know where the right place is to report bugs in the release
notes? If the same error occurs in 2.26 and 2.30, it suggests that the error
isn't being reported in the right place. I can't see an appropriate
"product" on bugzilla.gnome.org.

They don't even seem to have a 'product manager':
