Hi, 

This bug is related to a crash. Its severity must be CRITICAL.

Cheers!

Comment 3 Fabio Durán Verdugo 2009-11-30 21:14:17 UTC

why don't you check?

Comment 4 Miguel Angel Ruiz Manzano 2009-11-30 21:48:41 UTC

Hi Fabio,

I confirm the issue with Ubuntu 9.10 up to date. It means Totem Movie Player 2.28.2 and GStreamer 0.10.25 

Also I'm attaching a stacktrace

'Ubuntu 9.10 up to date' is not actually up to date. Ubuntu 9.10 ships gst-plugins-good 0.10.16, while the latest gst-plugins-good release is 0.10.17. Please re-test with -good 0.10.17 or git.

FWIW, I can't reproduce the issue with -good from git.

Comment 6 Edward Hervey 2009-12-01 11:59:52 UTC

latest -good is availabe in the gstreamer-developers PPA for karmik if you want to check with that : https://launchpad.net/~gstreamer-developers/+archive

Comment 7 Miguel Angel Ruiz Manzano 2009-12-02 17:58:15 UTC

Edward,

Thanks for the tip. I installed 0.10.17-1~karmic1 and I got the following trace when I tried to reproduce the file

Comment 8 Thiago Sousa Santos 2009-12-03 13:31:46 UTC

When using 'gst-launch playbin2' it works, when playing in totem, it fails.

Comment 9 Wim Taymans 2009-12-03 17:47:09 UTC

This movie has a video and a subtitle track. older versions seem to ignore the subtitle track and then crash when reading the index of the subtitles. 

Fixed in later versions, closing.
