Issue is reproducible and doesn't depend on movie in question. Also got a crash by playing a longer movie after ~5 mins. gnash builds both ffmpeg and gstreamer media handlers and defaults to ffmpeg. I'd suggest to switch to gstreamer which doesn't behave that way: $ echo "set MediaHandler gst" >~/.gnashrc We could make gst default. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
