Firefox crashes while playing a video with totem

[wladimir]

Binary package hint: firefox

Happens when reloading the page with the video.

What page/link please? When reporting bug likes this it is useful to know so we can see if improvements made work now.

Happens on cnn.com for me. Appears to be releated to windows media files and the totem-mozilla plugin. Crashes out to desktop.

Fresh feisty install. All Gstreamer plugins...good,bad and ugly.

[Freddy Martinez (freddymartinez9)]

Please use mplayer-plugin, does that work.

[Michael Smith (enginerd)]

I don't have mplayer install. I will install later. New occurance, trying to see if it is specific sites or types of video. Crashed at pbs.org firefox went away and left for a few seconds a blank totem window.

I will try installing mplayer see if that helps.

I bet this is a duplicate of bug 85112. Can you run firefox from console and see what it outputs on crash?

[Alexander Sack (asac)]

this is not a duplicate as bug 85112 was a regression introduced by firefox upload on 16 feb.

wladimir, you still see this issue? Can you please attach a full crash report or the small one if you install firefox-dbg package before you capture the report?
