I had the same problem. To reiterate the solution: System --> Preferences --> Sound Music and Movies: Auto-Detect (previously) Music and Movies: ALSA (New value that works)
My history with this issue: They all had worked correctly in Edgy. All 3 PCs with the problem had upgraded to Hardy. Flash videos ran correctly. The problem videos worked correctly with VLC. Therefore it's gStreamer-specific -- totem slows down when viewing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223784 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
