Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: totem
TRANSPORT CONTROLS USELESS::
upon playing one single song in totem, there is no possibility to rewind to
start, except for the seek-bar.
that means the transport controls are useless and only pause play will work.
USAGE OF SEEK-BAR FREEZES PLAYBACK::
even the seek bar itself causes totem to freeze playback, if used to rapidly
over the mouse wheel.
this happens to me with movies and music alike, whether mp3, .wav or whatever
other format i tried.
SIDEBAR PROBLEMS::
whenever the sidebar is open with the playlist, keyboard shortcuts will not
work, because the playlist quick textsearch will grab all input from
the keyboard
let's face it:
to make totem the main media player for the Gnome Desktop Environment is a very
shaky move.
As long as seeking freezes playback, and the transport controls are disabled
for 1-item-only playlists, totem is but a graphical frontend for simple
playback with no proper interface.
seeking with the mousewheel is a beautiful idea, shortcuts are also good, but
only if they work.
