Description j_greenhouse 2006-10-11 22:11:31 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When playing a webstream, totem starts buffering the stream but does not actually start playing the movie.
Once every 20 or so times it does work.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to http://channel9.msdn.com/Showpost.aspx?postid=243631
2. Click watch
3. 


Actual results:
Totem buffers the stream. I actually see the first frame of the movie. But totem does not start playing the stream.

Expected results:
play the stream.

Does this happen every time?
19/20 times

Other information:
Together with http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359133 I now how the most crippled movie player ever.

Worth adding, the totem browser plug in plays the same URL just fine.

Which backend are you using? xine-lib, or GStreamer?
