When tried to reproduce it in Firefox 5, Gnome 3, Fedora 15 it crashes. Here is the backtrace:

Comment 2 Sebastien Bacher 2012-06-12 09:16:05 UTC

That's still an issue apparently, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=804477 is similar in f17 with totem 3.3.90

the corresponding code function is "479			g_warning ("Error in bacon_video_widget_play: %s", err->message);"

The browser plugin has been removed from Totem. See this post for more details:
