Jaunty: totem-gstreamer-video-thumbnailer crashed with SIGSEGV in realloc()

[cariboo]

Binary package hint: totem

I downloaded a .flv using firefox and video download helper, when I tried to play the file totem crashed. Trying to play the same file in vlc, I got images flashing all over the screen.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a valgrind log following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

We are closing this bug report as it lacks the information, described in the previous comments, we need to investigate the problem further. However, please reopen it if you can give us the missing information and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future.

This is happening to me too.

I used apt-get to remove all of totem and gstreamer plugins
Then I did apt-get clean and ran totem.
The media player prompted me to install the various codecs that I needed ... the instant they were installed I got a segmentation fault.

Attached is the valgrind report

I created it using:
valgrind -v totem 2>>valgrind.log >>valgrind.log

that's a ffmpeg issue

what did you try to play to get the valgrind log?

[Brian Arita (brianjarita)]

I opened a youtube video in Mozilla Firefox which created /tmp/FlashXXXX

I copied that file to my home folder as test.flv and tried to play it. It
worked in Ubuntu 8.10.
