Public bug reported:
I have installed Ubuntu Gutsy RC and I have the same problem in my two
computers. It worked fine in both in feisty before. When I try to play
music or video (using the default aplication, totem) for first time the
codec installation program comes up and asks me if I want to install the
codecs. I mark them all and install. After that I get sound (either
movies or mp3's) but no image. I just see a some weird static image,
like when you get bad reception on tv. The extrange thing is that you
get a weird image when you play an mp3 as well, not the usual anymation
you get in totem. Also listening to mp3 hanged my computer. The computer
wasnt responsive at all, only the mouse was moving but cliking had no
effect. I waited for 2 or 3 minutes and then rebooted.
When I rebooted, the codecs started working fine in both computers.
Totem hasnt crash yet and everything seems fine. But a reboot was
needed.
Also, in one computer I got the option to install three sets of codecs,
while in the other I got only option to install 2 sets of codecs. "They
Ugly set" was missing, though I have installed them fine from synaptic.
I dont know if its related or not, but in mythtv using the internal
player, I can watch live tv with no problems but not videos at all. They
wont load.
