Description Philip Jägenstedt 2006-06-15 15:02:09 UTC
$ gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=http://www.archive.org/download/gullivers_travels1939/gullivers_travels1939.mpg

This will skip a little in the beginning and then freeze. I'm not sure if this is a problem with playbin or one of the plugins it loads (mpeg2dec and mad). I hope you can reproduce it!

Confirmed (my network connection isn't fast enough to keep up).


Strangely enough, with playbin from gst-launch it never catches up, while with totem it shows 'buffering' more or less all the time and the picture changes at least every 10 seconds or so (to a new still frame only though).



Works fine from local file (although duration estimation and seeking are a bit off, but these are known mpegdemux issues).

This sort-of works for me here. Playbin doesn't do a very good job of re-buffering though, because it doesn't pause the clock while doing it, which means that by the time new data arrives and is decoded, it's already late to the rendering party.
