[Bug 39050] Re: Totem crashes on startup.

[Scott Robinson]

Ok, I have figured this out more. I've been playing with using gst-launch to setup test video streams.

It appears the Xserver kicks back a BadAlloc when an xvideo is setup at resolutions it doesn't like.

I would assume this is proper server behavior - but I don't know. I do know that the issue with the leaftag-gimmie.avi is the base resolution (1x scale) is larger than my display, and coincidently counted as a resolution the server doesn't like. Therefore, it kicks back BadAlloc.

Either totem or gstreamer should be handling this eventuality, yes?
