Totem crashes at startup

[ChristofferS]

In Breezy, totem crashes at startup. This is the output:

"cs@amok ~ $ totem

Thanks for your bug. What version of totem/ubuntu do you use? Can you get a
backtrace of the crash (the bug-buddy dialog to send it upstream has it)?

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

I guess it crashes because libcdda.so is missing:

 ls /usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/
libbzip2.so libftp.so libpythonmethod.la libtheme-method.so
libcomputer.so libgzip.so libpythonmethod.so libvfs-test.so
libdns-sd.so libhttp.so libsftp.so
libfile.so libmapping.so libsmb.so
libfont-method.so libnetwork.so libtar.so

Totem version: 1.2.0-0ubuntu1

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

No, cdda has been turn on purpose and it has not effect out of the warning:
http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14010

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

This is the backtrace from gdb (gdb. file /usr/bin/totem. run. bt)

#0 0x0807b77a in bacon_video_widget_new ()
#1 0x08061e0b in totem_action_play_media_device ()
#2 0x08064362 in main ()

I hope it helps.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

coud you get one with "thread apply all bt" instead?

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

Here it is:

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks for the efforts, the backtrace is not that useful atm. Do you use
totem-gstreamer or totem-xine? Could you build a debug package
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash) to get a backtrace with it? If
that's an issue for you I can build one and put it on a webpage.

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

I am using totem-gstreamer.

I made a debug version of totem according to the wiki page. Here is the output:

        element = Variable "element" is not available.

I hope it helps.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks. Could you get the same backtrace with "bt", I'll forwarded the bug
upstream with these informations

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks, I've forwarded the issue upstream:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316010

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Do you happen to have "autodetect" turned on in gstreamer-properties? If so,
could you please turn on ALSA and try again?

[ChristofferS (ubuntu-curo)]

I had "auto-detect" on in gstreamer-properties.

When I use ALSA, totem starts fine.

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Since upstream doesn't recommend "autosink" for the moment, we agreed on not
shipping it next time. Thanks for the heads-up.
