Public bug reported:

If gstreamer-vaapi is installed Totem fails to play anything, and instead just 
shows an error popup saying "GStreamer encountered a general stream error". The 
app doesn't produce any error msg on the terminal, but shows that vaapi is 
being used:
...
(totem:8470): Grilo-WARNING **: [registry] grl-registry.c:472: Could not open 
plugins' info directory '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/grilo-0.2': Error opening

Gst-launch using vaapidecocde and vaapisink still works properly, using

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=bbb_sunflower_2160p_60fps_normal.mp4 !
qtdemux ! vaapidecode ! vaapisink

takes 6% cpu instead of 300% on my broadwell based laptop.
