Plays fine with "gst-launch-0.10 playbin2 uri=..." with git of everything. With totem 2.28.5, I get the following backtrace when loading the url:
+ Trace 220651
This should maybe be reassigned to totem.
Yes, definitely. Totem thinks it's a playlist, tries to parse it and explodes. In reality it's an ASF file. Thanks for debugging, Edward.
commit 12316e257478b6e144186427eb92b0c1ab2d1c42 Author: Bastien Nocera <hadess@hadess.net> Date: Wed Apr 7 17:55:07 2010 +0100 Fix parsing of dual-types after sniffing After getting the data type of a playlist through the actual data, we should check again if it matches the parser we want to use, otherwise we'll end up trying to parse video files that were masquerading as dual-type playlists.
