Bug Description

Totem does not play H264 videos any more. It used to play them one or two weeks ago. Container does not matter, .mp4 and .mkv both don't work. AAC audio-only files do work (.m4a or .mkv containers.)

If started from terminal, totem does show exactly the same messages when launched with MP4 like with WebM. But MP4 does not play, while WebM just works.

Ubuntu version:
14.10

Video card:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 0a2e (rev 09)

ubuntu-restriced-extras is installed. I tried to reinstall all gestreamer, totem and xorg-video-* packages.
