Description of problem: Opening a MIDI file from URL does not work in totem. A MIDI file can be played locally, but when going to "open location" and entering a URL, or using the totem-mozplugin, totem fails with a message saying "Internal data flow error." Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): totem-2.32.0-1.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open totem 2. Go to Movie | Open Location... or press Ctrl-L 3. Enter the URL to a MIDI file, such as this one: http://www.hypergurl.com/3DAYSK.mid OR 1. Install totem-mozplugin, and open firefox or chrome using this plugin 2. Go to a webpage with embedded MIDI files, such as this one: http://www.hypergurl.com/music.html 3. Click one of the links to a MIDI file, or click on totem's embedded control panel play button Actual results: Totem fails with an error message dialog saying "Internal data flow error" Expected results: Totem should play the MIDI file Additional info: When running totem on the command line, the following error message is also produced: ** Message: Error: Internal data flow error. gstwildmidi.c(862): gst_wildmidi_loop (): /GstPlayBin2:play/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin2/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin22/GstWildmidi:wildmidi2: streaming task paused, reason not-linked (-1) Totem is able to play this MIDI file when it is opened locally as a file, rather than as a URL. I've tried this on an i386 and x86_64 with the same result.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
