Bug Description
This is on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Desktop: Gnome
Compiz: 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu15
Totem: 2.30.0git201004
Chipset: Intel 82865G Integrated Graphics
Hardware: Dell Optiplex GX270
If I have Compiz enabled, Totem almost always display a black screen for video. This includes the example Ogg Theora ("UbuntuIsHuman
Trying full-screen and other options does not seem to resolve it.
As soon as I disable Compiz, Totem works perfectly.
Sometimes Totem will display the video initially when I am running Compiz, but as soon as I resize or move Totem the problem begins again.
This does not happen with Compiz disabled.
The "ubuntu-bug" tool seems to have fingered gstreamer0.10, from the behaviour it looks more like a Compiz fault; but I am no expert.
