*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 184907 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184907
I'm adding this because when I search for relevant bugs this keeps coming up. If this is not a totem issue what kind of bug should I file? See the error message below that says: file a bug.... Binary package hint: totem Platform: PowerPC Distro: Ubuntu 8.04 Totem:2.22.1 Using Youtube plugin for totem should play flash video from YouTube I had the YouTube plugin working fine. I didn't use it for about 1 week and in the meantime did a standard update as requested by the update manager. these are the packages I updated 5 days ago: Upgraded the following packages: gstreamer0.10-tools (0.10.18-4ubuntu1) to 0.10.18-4ubuntu2 helix-player (1.0.1-1) to 1.0.9-0ubuntu5 libexif-dev (0.6.16-2.1) to 0.6.16-2.1ubuntu0.1 libexif12 (0.6.16-2.1) to 0.6.16-2.1ubuntu0.1 libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu1) to 0.10.18-4ubuntu2 libgstreamer0.10-dev (0.10.18-4ubuntu1) to 0.10.18-4ubuntu2 tzdata (2008g-0ubuntu0.8.04) to 2008h-0ubuntu0.8.04 tzdata-java (2008g-0ubuntu0.8.04) to 2008h-0ubuntu0.8.04 Now when I try to play a YouTube video in totem I get the error: "An error occurred... ffdemux_swf: Element doesn't implement handling of this stream. Please file bug." I have searched the bugs and found several on this issue. I tried this fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/191760 that edits the /usr/lib/totem/plugins/youtube/youtube.py file but there was no effect. I find that swfdec and gnash no longer play swf either and this happens with: gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=http://www.allabout-sp.net/ep.swf?url=http://content.movies.myspace.com/0017703/38/48/1770318483.flv Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
