GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 554275
Clear streaming buffer on play/pause
Last modified: 2010-04-07 12:25:50 UTC
When playing streaming media (ex. internet radio), totem caches a part of it. Pausing the stream and continuing playback after 10 minutes continues playing the (old) buffer, then plays the live stream.
Do you have specific streams to test this with? Totem, for Internet radio (eg. live streams), will stop the pipeline altogether when pausing. So the audio coming out is likely to be in the audio buffers, instead of in Totem itself. This should be fixed when using PulseAudio, or with playbin2 (so in Totem 2.28 and newer). Please reopen the bug with a specific stream's URL if you can still reproduce the problem.
