Ok, I just updated the title to reflect reality. As far as I can tell, gstreamer doesn't loop, though the gtk client certainly hangs (debug log still shows frames being processed).
I figured a "fix" for the regression by reverting part of an upstream commit: http://paste.ubuntu.com/926326/ The upstream commit in question (found through bisect) is: f56c6e12255b37d75b1eb949e434fa8e3bb33f51 I'm now attaching the logs with GST_DEBUG=5 for cheese (camerabin) and ubiquity (camerabin2) both with the revert (working behaviour) and without (UI hanging). ** No longer affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) ** Summary changed: - Ubiquity loops forever from ubiquity_webcam_play + gstreamer hangs when accessing webcam (on specific hardware) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966294 Title: gstreamer hangs when accessing webcam (on specific hardware) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer0.10/+bug/966294/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
