Description:
Using Compiz (and Gnome as DE), Totem with the Youtube plugin crashes when a Youtube video is about to play. This is the crash output: The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 52 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) If I try to play videos using Metacity, everything works fine. For more information, see also this thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=46709 Additional info: * package versions: Totem 2.22.0 Compiz 0.7.4 Gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.3-1 (not sure if you need any other details) Steps to reproduce: Open Totem, search for a Youtube video in the sidebar, double click on a video. P.S. I'm not sure whether this bug is relative to Compiz or to Totem, so be kind if I posted in the wrong section. |
This task depends upon
Yes, this will remove any support for hardware scaling, but it's your choice: either you use compiz and live with the fact that XV is mostly broken with compiz, or you switch to a normal windowmanager and use XV.
To be honest I'm not really sure what Xv does. Anyway, at this point I guess this was a Compiz problem.
Thanks for your help :)
As a side note, out of curiosity, I have just enabled compositing in Metacity, and tried to set the Gstreamer video output back to "Automatic", and it crashed with BadAlloc as well. So it's not Compiz only to be at fault here.
What do you think? Is this an appropriate place to discuss about it? If not, please delete this comment. Thanks :)
