Public bug reported: Binary package hint: totem
My totem is choppy / skipping / laggy / jerky when playing videos using the codec "H264". The playback is perfect when the codec is "H.264 / AVC" or "ITU H.264". I'm using GNOME totem 2.18.1 (TOTEM-GSTREAMER) on 64-bit Ubuntu Feisty with a Nvidia 7900GS + nvidia-glx-new package. This codec is mostly distributed in the mkv container but I've encountered it in the avi format too and the problem still occurred. I've been working around this bug for a while by using MPlayer. Before I re-install ubuntu the only Video Driver [out of all the working ones] that would work in Totem to make playback smooth would be "gl" (I tried them all). Now the playback in Totem is smooth with any Video Driver I use. The audio plays fine in both Totem and MPlayer. Every other codec type I have played in Totem works perfectly.
