totem-bt.txt

Totem occasionally deadlocks while I'm using it, so I finally decided to collect a backtrace and file this bug. Based on the functions involved, I'm guessing that it's a problem in gstreamer, not totem, which is why I filed here. See the attached file for the gdb output. I don't remember whether the deadlock happened during normal playback, or in response to me seeking or pausing in the UI.

I forgot to mention: this is on an up to date Debian Wheezy system.
Comment 2 David Schleef 2011-07-04 02:19:08 UTC 
Could you attach a debug log created with 'GST_DEBUG=alsa:5 totem &>log'?

log

Yeah, here's the portion of the log that gets printed during initialization. I have no way to reproduce the deadlock, so I can't really provide anything more useful than that.
Comment 4 David Schleef 2011-07-04 05:11:35 UTC 
It's more important to have a log file of when the deadlock happens.

simon80, were you able to reproduce deadlock ? logs will be required when you see deadlock.
Comment 6 simon80 2011-08-25 00:20:13 UTC 
It happens far too occasionally for me to obtain logs (less than once a week, I'd say, and never in the last few weeks). I would have to always run totem with GST_DEBUG enabled until the next time it deadlocks.
