The xine-lib backend was removed from Totem master. Please test whether the
problem(s) you were encountering still occur with the GStreamer backend (in
which case you should file a new bug).
If you are unwilling or unable to use the GStreamer backend, feel free to use
alternative xine-lib based players, such as gxine.
Totem 2.26.x will still have the xine-lib backend available.

Therefore closing the totem task.
