Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2017-06-21 17:48:59 UTC 
This bug was initially created as a clone of bug #728716 and bug #733182 (which I thought were still open but actually aren't). It seems part of the issue had been fixed in 728716 (playback smoothness), but the other part remains: the UI feels terribly sluggish and "blocking" when launching totem as a standalone app (instead of opening a video file directly from Nautilus).

There is no output on the terminal.

It happens even on very powerful modern machines (ex: an i5 6200U with SSDs and 8 GB of DDR4). Will attach a video to demonstrate the problem.
