Totem Youtube H264 ffdemux_swf error

[Ashrael]

Hi, I installed the youtube h264 plugin in totem (http://www.soccio.it/michelinux/2008...o-in-totem/en/) and it works on one system but fails on another???
This is what it says in totem: ffdemux_swf: Element doesn't implement handling of this stream. Please file a bug.
And started from terminal:
:~$ totem

I have not been able to find out why it works on one and fails on another system, but I hope anyone can give me a clue...
In the mean time I will investigate further...


TIA!

Oh and I forgot: totem does play youtube videos, just not h264...

Try this.

Back up the original file, if you feel so inclined.

sudo mv /usr/lib/totem/plugins/youtubeh264/youtubeh264.py /usr/lib/totem/plugins/youtubeh264/youtubeh264.py_backup

Then move the attached file into the YouTube H264 plugin directory.

sudo mv youtubeh264.py /usr/lib/totem/plugins/youtubeh264/

This worked out perfectly for me although I did need to download the totem youtubeh264 plugin which is simple enough and then install this so thanks a lot!

[Ashrael]

I confirm! No more problems!

A BIG THANKS!
