Hi, I know this bug is 10 months old, but I wanted to report the same
type of behavior under Ubuntu 7.10, with Totem Movie Player 2.20.0 using
xine-lib version 1.1.7. I use totem-xine, mostly due to it's abilities
to play DVDs (with menu navigation), which is a big deal. I have no
problems streaming other movie formats, like AVI, only MPEGs.

I'd like to note that some MPEGs seem to stream over the network just
fine, and this is what I've found while testing a number of video files:

Streams Fine:
video: Microsoft MPEG-4 v3 (ffmpeg)
audio: MS Windows Media Audio 2 (ffmpeg)

Streams Poorly or Not At All (pauses / freezes totem):
video: MPEG (libmpeg2)
audio: MPEG audio layer 2 (lib: MAD)

Perhaps the problem lies with the performance of libmpeg2 or libMAD?
Just thought I'd add to report, since it was the only one I could find
specific to totem-xine having problems streaming MPEGs.
