Yup, it crashes on my machine too. Sometimes it just crushes, sometimes I can't select any file (the two normal file filters appear as "Untitled filter").

I'm having the same problem.

Another minor issue that I've noticed (which isn't necessarily new to this version) is the behavior of the "Fit Window to Movie" function. It never gets the sizing right the first time. You have to hold the 0, 1, or 2 key down until it finishes adjusting, and sometimes, it ends up choosing a bizarre aspect ratio.

Like I said, it's a minor issue, but I'm curious if others have noticed the same thing.

yup i get the crashing when adding to the play list too. happens with both totem-xine and totem-gstreamer. i've resorted to drag and drop from nautilus to add to the play list. don't know what's wrong.

it crashed for me too :(

crashes for me as well...

same problem - any solutions coming up? It seems that all sound applications are more unstable than usual... Sound-Juicer, gxine, totem, realplayer, Gtkpod etc... are all having random crashes - but that is perhaps just my computer... and then I have the add two times crash...

hope something comes up.

I considered requesting a 1.3.0 backport (it's in Dapper), but ubp-build.py reveals a dependency on libgstreamer-0.10. 0.10 can supposedly be installed in parallel with 0.08, but since it's such a fundamental library, it probably isn't viable.

jdong? Any resolution to this? I've forced version 1.2.0 in Synaptic for the time being.

Did any of you use automatix to configure your multimedia before the crashes? This is the second install that crashes after using automatix. Could be completely unrelated.

Well yeah i use automatix, but i don't even think it has anything to do with it :o

i did a by hand install and i get the same crashes.... i dont get this in my debian box and this is a fairly newish crash issue to me i know b/c i use the darn thing all the time and its not just totem-gstreamer its also totem-xine if you happen to be reinstalling try it before you do a dist-upgrade

[edit] adding info here... i compiled the latest one on my compy... dunno how well it might or might not work for ya but if you want to try??

:P compiled from 1.3.1 <<--- instead of 1.2.1

1. uninstall totem
2. install this
3. try

This bug is also filed on Launchpad now, and I'm looking into options right now.
