Binary package hint: totem
I've only noticed this yet in .mkv movies (which Nautilus reports as 'Matroska' something or other I think).
When starting Totem (the gstreamer variant that is) with the video, it will play it okay, but with some default language selected. When I change the language, sound stops, even though the video keeps playing. The same thing happens when seeking in the movie, whether it is using the keyboard or the scroll wheel or dragging the position slider (BTW, isn't there supposed to be a "Seek To: hh:mm:ss" dialog available somewhere? I can't find it).
Since Totem often (but strangely, not always) picks the worng language for audio and I like to skip back or forth now and then, this makes it rather useless in playing .mkv movies.
totem: 2.22.0-0ubuntu1
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg: 0.10.3-6
gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg: 0.8.7-10ubuntu1 (I'm not sure this package is still needed, but the v0.10 packages never actually _replaced_ the v0.8 ones in Apt)
Do you need more version numbers? I have all the latest gstreamer 0.10 packages installed from Hardy.
Sorry, can't give you an example of a movie that gets messed up. They're all way too large to upload here. |

DESCRIPTION:
------------------
When starting Totem (the gstreamer variant that is) with the video, it will play it okay, but with some default language selected. When I change the language, sound stops, even though the video keeps playing.
The same thing happens when seeking in the movie (.mkv, not confirmed on DVD), whether it is using the keyboard or the scroll wheel or dragging the position slider (BTW, isn't there supposed to be a "Seek To: hh:mm:ss" dialog available somewhere? I can't find it).
Since Totem often (but strangely, not always) picks the wrong language for audio and I like to skip back or forth now and then, this makes it rather useless in playing .mkv or DVD movies.
PACKAGE VERSIONS:
---------------------------
totem: 2.22.0-0ubuntu1
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg: 0.10.3-6
gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg: 0.8.7-10ubuntu1 (I'm not sure this package is still needed, but the v0.10 packages never actually _replaced_ the v0.8 ones in Apt)
HOW TO REPRODUCE:
----------------------------
Play a DVD movie, go to Sound -> Languages and change track. You'll then notice there's no more sound while movie keeps playing. |
