Totem opens new window to play movie in

[Domen Vrankar]

Binary package hint: totem

OS: Ubuntu 10.04 beta2 + all updates from update-manager

This happens only the first time right after you install package gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad for MPEG-4 AAC decoder.

Totem opens a new window just to play movie in it(no buttons or anything else in that window).

How to repeat:
1. You go to Youtube search menu in Totem.
2. Find a song.
3. right mouse click on it and select Add to Playlist.
4. Totem complains that codec is missing so let him search for it.
5. Totem finds package gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad with MPEG-4 AAC decoder
6. Install the package
7. Totem starts to play the song but opens a new external window only for the movie(otherwise plays normally)

Additional:
If you close the window with the movie Totem still plays the movie but time of playing doesn't move forward and clicking on pause/play button after the song ends doesn't do anything.

Every next time that you play a song Totem behaves correctly (no external window for the movie).

To repeat the bug after the first song just go to synaptic package manager and completely remove package gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad and then repeat the process described above.

Hope this helps.
Regards, Domen

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
