Public bug reported:
One can enter a keyword and MoviePlayer will search YouTube for that
keyword, but no thumbnails appear for the video at first. Clicking
"Find" a second time makes them appear. But double-clicking them does
not play them, but makes a error-dialog appear stating: "An error occurd
- GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error.".
Playing .flv files which I had downloaded beforehand from YouTube works
fine (after confirming that GStreamer was allowed to install additional
codecs). So, to make it clear: I tried GStreamer on .flv files. It
complained about missing codecs and asked permission to install them. I
confirmed and they got installed without any issues. After that the
videos played fine (both the normal quality YouTube vids and the HQ
ones, and various other files on my harddrive). But, when choosing
"YouTube" in the MoviePlayer itself, and trying to play the videos
found, it fails with the error mentioned above.
