[Bug 873767] [NEW] infinite loop in totem-video-thumbnailer

 

Public bug reported:

I'm not sure if this totem-video-thumbnailer or nautilus who is at fault
here. When I open any folder with audio files in it, I noticed that the
laptop fan started up a few moments later, then later I noticed the
icons for the audio files were always the temporary ones when nautilus
is waiting for a thumbnail of the media. Then I check .xsession-errors
to see if anything was being logged and noticed that there's a
continuous output from totem-video-thumbnailer with the following:

totem-video-thumbnailer: 'file:///home/bruno/Desktop/my.mp3' isn't thumbnailable
Reason: Media contains no supported video streams.

It's a continuous stream with this message for each audio file in the
open folders.

So either totem-video-thumbnailer is on an infinte loop or nautilus is
never happy with totem-video-thumbnailer output and is calling it over
and over again.

This is on Ubuntu 11.10
totem is version 3.0.1-0ubuntu7
nautilus is version 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu5
