[Bug 38946] Totem-gstreamer: Aspect ratio not correctly detected

[Rounan]

Public bug reported:

Affects: totem totem-gstreamer (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Using totem-gstreamer in an up to date Dapper system, the aspect ratio
seems to default to "square" for all videos. The correct aspect ratio
for any video I tested with (a couple dozen) was 4:3, so the default
results in very tall-looking people.

Once you set the aspect ratio to 4:3 it looks fine, but the setting
isn't preserved - you have to do it every time you run totem. The
default was correctly detected in Breezy, and I'll bet a lot of users
won't know how to change this setting.
