To follow up on this... I am not the only one. Here are a few bugzillas with lots of abrt activity: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=648874 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643994 The problem seems to be in gstreamer-ffmpeg. My workaround is to remove that package and use gstreamer-plugins-ugly instead.
