Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vlc

Tested on:
client: laptop with Ubuntu 9.10 with VLC 1.0.0-1ubuntu1
server: Windows XP Home SP3
A)
1. Create shared directory with some videos on windows
2. Browse the shared directory with Nautilus (should look like smb://_group_/_share-name_/)
3. Play video with VLC
4. An error occurs, and fixing AVI is proposed
5. Click "Don't fix" and close error dialog 
6. Movie is now played, but you can't use seekbar and total movie time is unknown

Now strange thing:
B)
Do steps 1-2
3. Play video 2-3 times rapidly, one after another, as fast as you can
4. The error dialog is shown, but no avi fixing is prosed
5. Close error dialogs and other VLC instances, leave only one
6. You can now fully use seek bar and total time is displayed correctly

Of course bug occurs in A4-6 and fix should look like at B6.

** Affects: vlc (Ubuntu)
