Hi, I just tried to reproduce this problem (thanks for the instructions and the codectest package) but it worked for me. I started with "wheelie.mov" and that asked me for codecs, but started playing right after they were installed. Then I clicked on the other ones and it seem to be working too. The next that required codecs was the .mpg one, but after installing them (the codecs) it worked right away too.
If you still have a VM with hardy (maybe with a snapshot) could you please check if the order of the files is important for the failure or something like this? Maybe it only fails if the first file is a specific one? -- Interactive codec installer should not require restart of Totem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
