I wanted to comment again on this bug should anyone with this problem stumble upon this hoping for a solution. Although it should be obvious to veteran Linux users, the problem is alleviated by mounting the samba/cifs share directly. That is, instead of navigating to the share through nautilus:
smb://hostname/sharename then streaming the media from there, mount it using mount.smb or mount.cifs: mount -t cifs //hostname/sharename /localfilesystem/mountpoint -o user=shareuser,password=sharepass Streaming media from a share mounted like this totally eliminates the problem for me. Hope this helps someone else out there. -- [totem-xine]Mpeg playback from windows share really choppy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84729 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
