Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You have reported a crash that actually happened in the libavcodec or libavformat library. In order to be able to actually fix this bug, we must be able to:

1. Reproduce it;
2. Check if it happens with the latest version; and
3. Understand where it actually crashes.

You can help with the first point by attaching an example file to this bug report. Please note that a proper attachment is preferred over a link to some remote site. Remote sites that are password protected or otherwise restricted (services like rapidshare.com) are absolutely not acceptable. If you're file is too large, try to reproduce with the first few MB only. See http://ffmpeg.org/bugreports.html section "Submitting Sample Media" for guidelines.

Please also make sure that your file crashes with the commandline application ffplay from the ffmpeg package. If the crash does not happen with that tool, the bug does not belong to the ffmpeg package, but to some higher-level package like libxine1-ffmpeg or gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg (depending on what player has been used)

could you try if the gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.6.2 update in jaunty fixes your issue?
