I have the same trouble, when I try to open a .rmvb file, totem starts but immediately crash. The apport daemon has been sending this report continuously ( and automatically)

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

I only could have this:

totem --debug Video.rmvb

(totem:5230): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_structure_new_empty: assertion 'gst_structure_validate_name (name)' failed
Violación de segmento (`core' generado)

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

This is the crash report

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Ubuntu 14.10 (utopic) reached end-of-life on July 23, 2015.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you do and in which version of Ubuntu otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
