Ubuntu (GNOME) default video player name
I want to report a bug with the default video player in Ubuntu.
Based on this instructions I need to also know the program name.
On the icon it's named "Videos" but using ubuntu-bug videos returns an error that the package isn't installed.
That is the name of the app.
App Visible on the background using Alt+F2 to trigger an error reporting modal.
That states there's no such app with that name
gnome video-player

Run the video player, look up name from PID: ls -l /proc/[PID]/exe; OR search installed packages

The most likely cause of linked 'bug' is from gstreamer1.0-vaapi. Try removing it & see.sudo apt purge gstreamer1.0-vaapi(- known and previously reported bug

This isn’t obvious, but the GNOME Videos applications is also known as Totem, and the corresponding package is totem:
ubuntu-bug totem
To find this out, the most reliable way, based on an application’s name in the launcher, is to find the corresponding launcher configuration file. Open a terminal, and run
grep -r Videos /usr/share/applications
This will list /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Totem.desktop; to find out which package supplies this file, run
dpkg -S /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Totem.desktop
