Traceback when importing MPEG files from a Sony Handycam DVD camcorder

[Laurent Dinclaux]

Binary package hint: pitivi

I extract mpeg2 files from my Sony Handcam DVDs to keep the best quality. If I import those files pitivi fails to import those, it says it is a timeout error:

$ pitivi
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/pitivi/python/pitivi/discoverer.py", line 676, in _capsNotifyCb
    stream.thumbnail = self.thumbnails[ghost]
KeyError: <GstPad (dbin:src1) at 33ea7d0>

Using debug option:

$ pitivi -d
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
  File "/usr/lib/pitivi/python/pitivi/discoverer.py", line 676, in _capsNotifyCb
    stream.thumbnail = self.thumbnails[ghost]
> /usr/lib/pitivi/python/pitivi/discoverer.py(676)_capsNotifyCb()
-> stream.thumbnail = self.thumbnails[ghost]

There are patches upstream, can someone test them?
