Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem-gstreamer

I have a filename.avi, and same filename.srt, that holds the subtitles.

When I try to load the filename.avi, I get the Error message :
GstPlayBin: A subtitle stream was detected, but no video stream.

When I remove the filename.srt, I get the Add/Remove application that
suggest me to install ffmpeg, and thats Ok.

In summary, the error happens when two conditions occur:
1. Subtitle file exists.
2. Movie codec does not exist.
