Package: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
Version: 0.10.15-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Hello.
After upgrading libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 to the latest version, I
noticed that my media player, which uses GStreamer via PyGST, would hang
at the end of each song. It would not hang indefinitely, but still, for
a long long while.
Attached is a minimal python program that exhibits the problem: with
libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 0.10.14-4 it starts a new track after
the previous one finishes, but with 0.10.15 it hangs. You should be able
to check the difference with the files at [1], which are 1 second long
each: the stops will be short, but noticeable. Use longer tracks for the
effect to become more evident.

I hope you can reproduce the problem.
Also, I'm not sure this bug would not belong to gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
instead.
Thanks in advance,
