Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

Hi !

Here's an issue I can easily reproduce + I attached a stack trace.

I have to :
1) open totem
2) open a couple of mp3s : in my case : the Machinarium soundtrack, in mp3s, with a cover.jpg file that is displayed while playing
3) play some tracks : I have to change the track from 5 to 50 files before the problem actually occurs.
4) it doesn't crash but the GUI hangs. Also, sound is played but the cover is not displayed when it happens (black area instead).
--> only solution is to kill the task
--> the attached stack trace was after loading about 50 mp3 files ; the totem GUI hanged when trying to play "09 The Black Cap Brothergood Theme.mp3" but that is random. During my previous tests without gdb, the crash occured much more quickly.

What should happen : play the file / display the cover
What happens : GUI freezes / cover not displayed / but it still plays the mp3 file

Cheers !

BTW : please tell me if I should report this upstream (if someone here managed to reproduce it, I guess ?).
