The slider should be made unsensitive in streaming mode

The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/112262 "Binary package hint: totem 1. Open up a .flv video in Totem 2. Notice that the "Time:" bar never fills up. Pausing and resuming works, seeking doesn't. ... I'm running Feisty with totem-gstreamer. Edgy only played .flv's audio I think, which has been fixed. Download the second movie from the url below, "Windy 50s Mobility Scooter Race" 25 fps version and it will exhibit the bug. Seeking anywhere restarts the video. Note that totem will say that it's streaming but it's actually not (the file is fully downloaded, just to be sure I had network manager disable networking and played it). http://www.mediacollege.com/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html" The video is played in Streaming mode, the slider could be make unsensitive when that's the case

There is still a totem bug there though, the slider should be set unsensitive, no?
I'll look into it.
See bacon_video_widget_is_seekable(). I'm fairly certain seeking is supposed to work, but doesn't for this particular type of file (ie. most likely a bug in the demuxer, in gst-ffmpeg).
The latest relase (0.10.3) of gst-ffmpeg fixes the issue.
As mentionned in the last comment, this issue is fixed now. Closing ?
