steps: (1) play a video. (2) go the right panel, right click on the video file playing, (3) add a subtitle (4) continue watching the video the subtitle (5) then try to open another video file, it will failed with that error 'Can't play a text file without video.' even if you clear the play list, you will still get that error. the only way is to close totem and reopen it. it seems totem try to play the subtitle file alone.
Which version of Totem and all the GStreamer packages are you using? Which distribution are you using?
what the ... ? i selected totem 2.28.x when i made my bug report. why does this not appear in it now ? totem 2.28.4-1 gstreamer0.10 0.10.25-1 gstreamer0.10-bad 0.10.17-2 gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins 0.10.17-2 gstreamer0.10-base 0.10.25-1 gstreamer0.10-base-plugins 0.10.25-1 gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.9-1 gstreamer0.10-good 0.10.17-1 gstreamer0.10-good-plugins 0.10.17-1 gstreamer0.10-pitfdll 0.9.1.1-2 gstreamer0.10-python 0.10.17-1 gstreamer0.10-ugly 0.10.13-1 gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins 0.10.13-1 gstreamermm 0.10.5-1 i use archlinux. it's a rolling release distro. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_release
i don't see any link with gstreamer here. this seems to be a totem bug.

it's that i use the latest gstreamer module already ! so i need to use git version or what ? it has nothing to do with my distro if it is an upstream bug of gstreamer, isn't it !?
