It seems that it's a libav bug. If started like $ totem --gst-debug=6
the following output is produced: 0:00:05.212869886 17220 0x7fd284013b70 ERROR libav :0:: Invalid chars '.0' at the end of expression '1.0' 0:00:05.212878563 17220 0x7fd284013b70 ERROR libav :0:: Unable to parse option value "1.0" 0:00:05.212884114 17220 0x7fd284013b70 INFO libav :0:: Assertion ret >= 0 failed at src/libavcodec/options.c:142 The problem seems to be with libav trying to parse "1.0" string as a floating-point number, but current locale is set up to treat comma "," as a decimal-point instead of plain point ".". I don't know where "1.0" string comes from.
