When you right-click a file and choose the "Open with another application" option, I think it replaces the %u with the file name. Not sure about it.

Possibly, because I opened totem with that option, it was looking for a file, that did not exist.

Here (http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-0.9.4.html#exec-variables) you go.
u means url, f = file, d = directory, capitals means mulptiple of those. See the link for more.
