Example problematic .srt that is NOT shown by my Totem. (128 bytes, application/x-subrip)

Created attachment 320045 [details]
Example problematic .srt that is NOT shown by my Totem.

When I add an .srt file (during video playback, by drag-and-drop or via menu...) smaller than 129 bytes, Totem does not show it at all. What is even worse: it sticks in this stage, so even if I add a new, bigger .srt, it does not show it either anymore. It works properly again after (Totem) restart.

(I need such small subtitles as I create them for showing only date info for home movies.)

It seems the size is the problem: if I add spaces (or even just empty new lines!) to reach 129 bytes, then the text is displayed properly.

I use Ubuntu 15.10 with built in Totem. (I can't see version info in Totem's help/About!? But "Software Center" shows "totem 3.16.4-0ubuntu2" is installed.)
