Public bug reported: Made a screen capture with Istanbul and tried to view this with Totem in Dapper, but it crashes with that file. Here's the output of Totem: [snip] Using netbios name MOONSHINE. Using workgroup MSHOME. video_out_xv: using Xv port 69 from adaptor Intel(R) Video Overlay for hardware colorspace conversion and scaling. video_out_xv: port attribute XV_COLORKEY (6) value is 66046 video_out_xv: port attribute XV_BRIGHTNESS (5) value is -1 video_out_xv: port attribute XV_CONTRAST (4) value is 65 video_out_xv: this adaptor supports the yuy2 format. video_out_xv: this adaptor supports the yv12 format. x11osd: unscaled overlay created (Colorkey mode). video_out: thread created snd_pcm_open() failed:-16:Device or resource busy >>> Check if another program already uses PCM <<< audio_oss_out: Opening audio device... audio_oss_out: audio.device.oss_device_name = auto, probing devs audio_oss_out: Auto probe for audio device failed audio_esd_out: connecting to esd server... audio_out: thread created xine_stream_new video_out_xv: VO_PROP_INTERLACED(0) xine: found input plugin : file input plugin load_plugins: probing demux 'anx' load_plugins: probing demux 'matroska' ebml: invalid master element load_plugins: probing demux 'mng' load_plugins: probing demux 'ogg' xine: found demuxer plugin: OGG demux plugin demux_ogg: Theorastreamsupport is highly alpha at the moment video discontinuity #1, type is 0, disc_off 0 waiting for audio discontinuity #1 audio discontinuity #1, type is 0, disc_off 0 waiting for in_discontinuity update #1 vpts adjusted with prebuffer to 140739 load_plugins: plugin theora will be used for video streamtype 3e. xine_play libtheora:Received an bad packet diff=1 (pts=1, last_pts=0) video discontinuity #2, type is 2, disc_off 1 waiting for audio discontinuity #2 audio discontinuity #2, type is 2, disc_off 1 waiting for in_discontinuity update #2 libtheora:Received an bad packet video jump The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 65 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
The file I was trying to watch is here http://zygis.gotdns.org/stuff /desktop-recording.ogg (~0.5Mb) However, I'm not sure should I have reported this against Istanbul or Totem. ** Affects: totem (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Assignee: Ubuntu X SWAT Status: Needs Info -- Totem receives BadAlloc when playing very large movies using Xv https://launchpad.net/bugs/4229 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
