During https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2011-02-03_GNOME3_Alpha I used image http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/gnome3_test_day_20110203/gnome3_test_20110203.iso. I've downloaded and played http://people.opera.com/shwetankd/webm/sunflower.webm. Then started to torture totem by pausing, rewinding video etc. and after some time video playback stopped. Totem was still responsive, but video didn't react to playback controls. HW: http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_36fe8ad8-0aa5-44b4-b9ce-2931ba4795a8
totem-2.91.6-2.fc15.x86_64 I experienced similar issues with seeking/rewinding etc. in sunflower.webm, however sintel-360p.webm works fine seeking/rewinding/pausing/playing etc.: http://www.assembla.com/code/cristianadam/subversion/node/live/25/webpages/sintel/sintel-360p.webm My hardware: http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_3a2cf40c-0037-46c0-a593-c730c3cb4bcf
Can you still reproduce the problem with more recent versions of Totem? My guess is that this was a bug in GStreamer that got fixed. If the problem still happens, please gather a backtrace of the hang.
Charles, Oleg did you get a chance to try out latest versions of Totem ?
I did not. It seems I don't have time/priority to test this. Sorry.
Let's assume this to be OBSOLETE. Please reopen if this is not the case.
