Youtube plugin hangs totem or something. gdb traced.

[ethana2]

Binary package hint: totem

When I go to view a search for youtube videos in totem on Ubuntu 8.10, totem hangs.
..until I run it in gdb, then it behaves, blast--oh wait, there it goes.

GAHH, would it kill them to compile with -g ?
Anyways, here's what totem does say, what looks relevant at least..

there's nothing showing a hang there, could you tell us a few easy steps in order to reproduce that behavior?

[ethana2 (ethana2)]

Ok, now it's not getting to the point where it crashes, it just says
"ffdemux_swf: Element doesn't implement handling of this stream.
Please file a bug."
..Yeah, I'm getting that error 100% of the time now.
...that's probably a different bug that has been filed.

I'm going to say this bug requires that one to be fixed before it can
be reproduced again, I don't know why, but that's what it's looking
like.
The fact remains that I cannot watch youtube videos in totem..

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

that's a gstreamer issue and a known one.
