You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: totem
Release: Intrepid, x86 (i.e. 32bit) Maybe this is a PEBKAC and I'm just expecting things to be too intuitive, but trying something as simple as: totem http://site/path/to/video.mp4 doesn't actually stream and play the video. Totem reports: $ totem http://site/path/to/video.mp4 ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Init of Python module ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Registering Python plugin instance: BBCViewer+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Creating object of type BBCViewer+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Creating Python plugin instance ** (totem:5083): WARNING **: Failed to create dbus proxy for org.gnome.SettingsDaemon: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no such name ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Init of Python module ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Registering Python plugin instance: YouTube+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Creating object of type YouTube+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:5083): DEBUG: Creating Python plugin instance ** Message: no file info ** Message: Error: Resource not found. gstfilesrc.c(1018): gst_file_src_start (): /GstPlayBin:play/GstFileSrc:source: No such file "/path/to/video.mp4" It would appear that totem is stripping off the http://site portion of the URI and expecting the file to exist locally. ** Affects: totem (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: New -- won't open an http uri https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/306557 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to totem in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
