[Bug 1391415] [NEW] totem does not play H264 any more

 

Public bug reported:

Totem does not play H264 videos any more. It used to play them one or
two weeks ago. Container does not matter, .mp4 and .mkv both don't work.
AAC audio-only files do work (.m4a or .mkv containers.)

If started from terminal, totem does show exactly the same messages when
launched with MP4 like with WebM. But MP4 does not play, while WebM just
works.

Ubuntu version:
14.10

Video card: 
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 0a2e (rev 09)

ubuntu-restriced-extras is installed. I tried to reinstall all
gestreamer, totem and xorg-video-* packages.
