recordmydesktop.ogv

Description of problem:
There are some problems with theora in current Rawhide. I don't know if it is application problems or codec problems, but I hope you can decide. All I know is that everything worked ok in Fedora 11.

I have tried to record my desktop using gtk-recordmydesktop and the output file is totally broken. It was set to 15fps, but both in totem and mplayer it plays like 0.25fps (1 frame in 4 seconds). Vlc can't even play it.

When recording using istanbul, it plays correctly in all players, but video quality is unbelievably poor.

I believe all the records/players have not broken out of the blue at once, so there must be some problem in the codec itself.

I attach the two recordings for examination. In both I should be opening system and context menus and moving the cursor over the items fluently.
