GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 135045
upon X error totem should show a comprehensive message
Last modified: 2009-05-06 13:56:23 UTC
when i have epiphany running and try to load totem it works with out problem, but when i try to play a video at the same time i usually get this error in the .xsession-errors: The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 55 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) To the user totem just quits without giving any reason of what happend, it would be useful if totem could show a message saying that there wasn't enough resources to play the video or something like that.
I also get this error when I try to start totem. I'm using: $ rpm -qa|grep totem mozilla-totem-0.99.12-1.1.fc2.fr totem-0.99.12-1.1.fc2.fr $ rpm -qa|grep gstreamer gstreamer-0.8.1-1 gstreamer-plugins-0.8.1-1 gstreamer-plugins-extra-audio-0.8.1-0.1.fc2.fr gstreamer-devel-0.8.1-1 gstreamer-plugins-extra-video-0.8.1-0.1.fc2.fr gstreamer-plugins-extra-dvd-0.8.1-0.1.fc2.fr gstreamer-plugins-devel-0.8.1-1 Interesting thing is, gxine has the same problem...
Downloaded the hugest Matrix trailer to reproduce the bug: http://whatisthematrix.warnerbros.com/rl_cmp/sequel_trailers_dl_ultra.html

I'm seeing a similar assertion here on i810 system (1280x1024 16bpp) with totem-xine (no problem with totem-gstreamer). Replacing totem_logo.png with media-player-48.png allows totem to start and plays movies.

This fixes the crashes on startup due to Xlib and xine-lib's inability to make videos fit in the memory available to Xv. Committed to gnome-2-14 and HEAD. 2006-06-29 Bastien Nocera <hadess@hadess.net> * src/backend/bacon-video-widget-xine.c: (bacon_video_widget_expose), (bacon_video_widget_set_logo_mode), (bacon_video_widget_set_logo): Draw the logo from the video widget itself, instead of relying on xine-lib to show it. Crashes on startup when the logo doesn't fit the video memory available to Xv

The xine-lib backend was removed from Totem master. Please test whether the problem(s) you were encountering still occur with the GStreamer backend (in which case you should file a new bug). If you are unwilling or unable to use the GStreamer backend, feel free to use alternative xine-lib based players, such as gxine. Totem 2.26.x will still have the xine-lib backend available.
