[wellylug] Totem-xine problem

[Colin Templeman]

Hi everyone,

I'm running Ubuntu Warty, and I have no idea why, but totem-xine does not want 
to play nice :(

It will play media after a fashion, but for WAV/MP3 it will truncate the end of 
the sound playing - typically completing only 80-90% of the file.
With video it will generally play files through, but will show heaps of 'static' 
across the picture.  Vanilla Xine functions fine with the same samples.

I have uninstalled the application, nuked the debs in the cache and got it fresh 
again - but this error message continues to appear when installing:

What does this error mean exactly?  Any suggestions as to what I can try to get 
it to work?

Thanks,
