[Bug 43589] Re: [totem-gstreamer] wont play vcd for "unknown reason"

 

Recently played with Maverick (with updates) and found that it is able
to detect VCD on insertion, and I was prompted to install a plugin if
Totem is selected. But the inability to move to next track is still
there.

Bug description:
  In karmic, one of the actions for a VCD is to open it with totem. This
  results in an error message.

  The command totem is launched with is something like 'totem
  /media/cdrom0'.

  The command 'totem vcd://' gets the VCD playing alright.

  dawn@dawn-desktop:~$ LANGUAGE=en_US totem /media/cdrom0
  ** Message: no file info
  ** Message: Error: Could not open resource for reading.
  vcdsrc.c(421): gst_vcdsrc_start (): /GstPlayBin2:play/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstVCDSrc:source:
  system error: Inappropriate ioctl for device

  The command 'totem vcd:///' also gives an error.
