Bug Description

When you have a big list of mp3s in a folder, it is common to click on one by mistake and quickly click on another, the one you intended to click on in the first place. Totem plays the last clicked item for a few seconds, then switches to the one before that. It should be the other way around. It should play the last clicked item always. It doesn't make sense the way it is.

If you want to try this, click on a sound file and quickly click on another. The one you last clicked will play briefly and then will be cut off by the first one you clicked.

I was unable to reproduce this using Gutsy Gibbon. It would be helpful if you were to add the release of Ubuntu that you tested this with.

Hi, this happens in feisty fawn. Here try this:

1. Close totem if you have it open.
2. Click on a sound file then quickly on another when the loading cursor is still on.
3. It will play the first one, even though "opening the second file" will show in the gnome panel briefly.

So maybe this only happens when the loading cursor is still showing, still, it should open the last one. Or else it should not show the "opening 2nd file" in the panel. This might not seem like much, but listening to music while surfing the web, this can happen a lot. And it can be annoying since I already switch to firefox by the time it begins playing and it plays a song I didn't expect it to and I have to switch back.
