Title:
Totem won't play some mp4 files
Status in “gstreamer0.10” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have some mp4 files, downloaded from YouTube using this extension:
http://www.chromeextensions.org/utilities/chrome-youtube-downloader/ .
I could give an example video, but I'm not sure if doing so violates
copyright or not.
When I try to play them in Totem, it shows the file name in its title,
and the file appears in the playlist, but nothing plays. All I get is
a black screen and a "Playing | 0:00 / 0:00" in the status bar.
The files play correctly in VLC, and they play using "gst-launch-0.10
playbin uri=file:$(pwd)/v.mp4", so I'm guessing the files are not
corrupt. They also used to play correctly in Oneiric.
The files also don't play in Banshee, and if I right-click on one of
them in nautilus and select Properties, nautilus shows a window saying
"Creating Properties window. You can stop this operation by clicking
cancel." and stays like that until I press "Cancel" (I waited for over
10 minutes).
I searched for other bugs, and one recommended attaching the output of
"GST_DEBUG_NO_COLOR=1 GST_DEBUG=3 totem v.mp4", which I attached to
this bug report. It has lots of the following lines:
0:00:00.846767856 8323 0x7f39380038f0 ERROR ffmpeg :0:: AVC:

codecs):
