Description Johannes Schmid 2009-11-09 21:39:55 UTC 
This was created as addition to bug 361793!

Probably this is a bug in gstreamer for not providing this information but anyway, there is no buffer status for DivX files available. 

Example: http://www.jhepple.com/support/SampleMovies/AVI_DivX.avi
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2009-11-13 17:56:32 UTC 
We can't do download buffering on those, as the AVI index isn't available at the start of the file. This would require the queue2 element in GStreamer's playbin2 to try and do a seek on the web server (which might, or might not work).

    uridecodebin: we can handle avi in download mode too
    
    Add avi to the whitelisted types that can be used for download buffering.
