[Vala] Clutter-Gst VideoTexture problem (fc17)

[Brian Duffy <brduffy gmail com>]

Hello all,

I installed fedora 17 (vala 0.16, clutter 1.10) on a development machine
today and tried porting a project over from fedora 16 (using vala 0.14,
clutter 1.8, etc). I'm having trouble getting the Clutter-Gst VideoTexture
to work now. I can start the movie and pause it , but then I can't start it
again. I stripped the code down to provide an example that works in my
Fedora 16 environment but not in my Fedora 17 environment. I installed
rpm-fusion to get mp4 files playing in gstreamer via gstreamer-ffmpeg.
Could it be a bug. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Brian
