Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: totem
I've just made a brand new install of Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron so this
problem is with Totem 2.22.1.
I used Xrandr to configure the S-Video to work through my TV. Specifically I did
xrandr --addmode S-video 800x600
xrandr --output S-video --mode 800x600
Totem runs but only displays the video on the LCD.
To workaround this I ran this to turn the LCD off:
xrandr --output LVDS --off
and restarted Totem.
This allows Totem to play.
Next, I press F11 to go to full screen mode and X promptly crashes.
WORKAROUND
1. Run Alt-F2 then type gstreamer-properties.
2. On the Video tab, for the Default output select X Windows System (No XV).
3. Close.
The No XV option allows the movie to display on both the LCD and S-Video and
full screen mode works.
However, the default option of Autodetect should work properly out of the box.
