Being in Feature Freeze, the upcoming Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) operating system received numerous updates today, including the Privacy Settings mentioned in an article earlier.

Among other noticeable features, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS now has an Unity Video Lens, allowing users to easily track their video files stored locally, or search for videos online, via popular websites like YouTube or Vimeo.

The Video Lens is displayed in the Unity Dash next to the Music Lens (click the image above to enlarge). By default it shows recently watched videos and files stored on the "Video" folder located in your home directory.

The new Lens allows to search for video files on sites like Amazon, BBC iPlayer, YouTube Movies, YouTube Education, YouTube Shows, Vimeo, VODO, Sci-Fi London, ABC iView, TED Talks, and Encuentro.
