Bug Description
* Impact
When the vaapi plugin is installed totem displays video with a green overlay
* Test case
- install gstreamer1.0-vaapi
- download https:/
- open the video in totem
-> the video should look like a normal desktop and not a green one
* Regression potential
Check that different videos format play correctly, the vaapi plugin is not installed by default so it has limited risk for most users
-------------------
MP4 videos cannot be played using the video player (TOTEM). This might be an upgrade problem.
VLC and other video players are working fine but i prefer to use totem
I have attached a video recording showing the problem in detail. All was working fine before the upgrade.
PS : I understand this problem is not related to the package "ubuntu-

Thank you for your bug report. Could you give the output of that command
$ dpkg -l | grep gstreamer
Also what error do you get exactly when trying to open a video?
