on hardy both totem-xine and -gstreamer seem to be installed.

so when you run with totem-xine
you get this output

Milestoning to Hardy final.

[sam tygier (samtygier)]

upstream say this is a gstreamer issue

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (pochu)]

Yes, that's the same answer slomo said when I asked him about this bug, and as he said, using a snapshot of -plugins-bad fixes this.

We'll need for the next release or at least a pre-release of it, unless someone can extract a patch for this.

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (pochu)]

Note that invalid in the upstream task should be Fix Released.

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (pochu)]

This is already fixed
