Tim-Philip,

I have news:
* .avi file plays correctly [video & audio]
* mp3 file + goom works.
* current CVS version of gst-ffmpeg is hosed

Discussion
------------
I uninstalled:
* gstreamer
* gst-plugins-base
* gst-plugins-good
* gst-ffmpeg

I built and installed:
* gstreamer-CVS
2006-02-07  Andy Wingo  <wingo pobox com>

        * libs/gst/base/gstbasesink.c (gst_base_sink_chain_unlocked): Only
        warn if sync=true.

* gst-plugins-base-CVS
2006-02-07  Tim-Philipp M� <tim at centricular dot net>

        * gst/playback/gstplaybasebin.c: (prepare_output):
          Don't print the URI as part of the error message, it
          makes error dialogs look rather ugly, especially if
          the URI is very long or has characters in it that
          need escaping.

* gst-plugins-good-CVS
2006-02-07  Zaheer Abbas Merali  <zaheerabbas at merali dot org>

        * ext/shout2/gstshout2.c: (gst_shout2send_render),
        (gst_shout2send_setcaps), (gst_shout2send_change_state):
        Make shout2 work for non ogg streams

* gst-ffmpeg-CVS
2006-02-06  Thomas Vander Stichele  <thomas at apestaart dot org>

        * ext/ffmpeg/gstffmpegcodecmap.c: (gst_ffmpeg_codecid_to_caps),
        (gst_ffmpeg_smpfmt_to_caps):
        * ext/ffmpeg/gstffmpegdec.c: (gst_ffmpegdec_setcaps),
        (gst_ffmpegdec_negotiate), (gst_ffmpegdec_frame),
        (gst_ffmpegdec_chain):
          debug recurring events at LOG level
          do some timestamp setting heuristics on the pcache, with the
          net result of having more buffers have approximately correct
          timestamps.
          This allows playback of h263/3gp files taking fps from the demuxer,
          which before always set GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE as timestamp.

With this configuation audio was hosed.  totem refused to identify an mp3 file
as an mp3 file.

I uninstalled gst-ffmpeg-CVS, built and installed gst-ffmeg-0.10.0 and things
worked, more or less...

Switching back and forth between playing an avi file and an mp3 file I saw one
error that is not reproducible:

ERROR (0x35808f48 - 0:03:11.009242000)               ffmpeg( 3555) (0)::
insufficient thread locking around avcodec_open/close()

I have also seen an "internal data overflow" message. 

Exit and restart totem and the problem vanishes.

-Joseph
