Additional info:

I'm sure that this is not a totem problem, but lacking the knowledge of the real culprit, I will report it against totem. Pidgin fails to start with the same messages, if started from console, which are 
bash-4.0$ totem
Warning: Unable to create "trees" RDF storage.
Performance can be improved by upgrading librdf.

I had the same errors with nautilus. For me, the problem was solved by removing "gstreamer-plugins-bad".

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-02 10:33:37 UTC 
gstreamer-plugins-bad needs a rebuild. File a bug against your provider of gstreamer-plugins-bad as it's not provided by Fedora.
