Bugtrace

I am using gstreamer git and Totem becomes mostly unresponsive while trying to load any video.
Comment 1 Eric Appleman 2009-12-09 05:30:14 UTC 
BTW, this is only happening with mkv files. might have something to do with the new code for gstassrender and embedded fonts.
Comment 2 Eric Appleman 2009-12-09 06:10:46 UTC 
Seems to be working after I enabled restarting X. Enabling the GLSL on my i945 may have made a difference too.
Comment 3 Eric Appleman 2009-12-09 06:20:56 UTC 
Disregard my last. The bug is back.

Also, here's a debug log.

Comment 5 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-09 10:55:20 UTC 
Do you have the same problem using gst-launch?
Comment 6 Eric Appleman 2009-12-09 16:30:16 UTC 
Provided that I use the proper parameters, no.
Comment 7 Eric Appleman 2009-12-13 05:23:22 UTC 
Is there any other info I should provide?
Comment 8 Eric Appleman 2009-12-16 19:31:57 UTC 
BTW, here's a sample file: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TVFH66Q3

It's a mkv with embedded fonts and an ASS subtitle script that calls upon said fonts.

Comment 10 Eric Appleman 2010-01-29 02:03:08 UTC 
I'd like to point out that prior to 0.25.10.1, matroska files would load fine, albeit with improper subtitle styling. 0.25.10.1 broke matroska+ass loading in Totem entirely.
Comment 11 Eric Appleman 2010-01-29 02:18:30 UTC 
Do note that playbin2 does not load assrender and as such can no longer load matroska files that contain subtitles.

Here's what is required to properly load matroska files that contain subtitles:

gst-launch filesrc location=[gg]_Umineko_no_Naku_Koro_ni_-_23_[1F55F7E5].mkv ! matroskademux name=v v.subtitle_00 ! queue ! sub. v.video_00 ! queue ! decodebin ! ffmpegcolorspace ! assrender name=sub ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! xvimagesink v.audio_00 ! queue ! decodebin ! pulsesink
Comment 12 Eric Appleman 2010-01-29 02:42:12 UTC 
Ignore my conjecture for the last few comments.
Comment 13 Tim-Philipp Müller 2010-02-24 01:06:44 UTC 
So is this still a problem with the current pre-releases (of -base and -bad) then?
Comment 14 Eric Appleman 2010-02-24 01:17:57 UTC 
To the best of my knowledge, this issue is resolved.
