In Feisty, Firefox goes black when playing MPEG in totem-mozilla

[ddumanis]

- Looks like the embedded MPEG video is going to play in Firefox using totem-mozilla, but it never does. Firefox window stays black.
- Happened after upgrading successfully to Feisty.
- Bug reproduces faithfully every time.
- Mozilla-mplayer works as workaround.

This is an Ubuntu bug -- not a Launchpad bug.

(By the way ddumanis, if you can tell us how you came to report the bug on "malone" by mistake instead of Ubuntu totem, please tell us in bug 88818. Thanks!)

Thank you for your bug. Do you use totem-gstreamer or totem-xine? Could you give an URL to trigger the bug?

[Stuart Bishop (stub)]

I get this with totem-xine. The attached file is an example mpeg that triggers the issue, but I suspect it is any mpeg.

Does playing it with totem work fine? Might be a codec missing issue
