Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kaffeine

Distro:
user at machine:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release:	8.04

Binary package: kaffeine (0.8.6-0ubuntu8.1)
Source package: 0.8.6-0ubuntu8.1 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kaffeine/0.8.6-0ubuntu8.1)
kaffeine-gstreamer version: 0.8.6-0ubuntu8.1

Kaffeine has problems when playing FLV files using the Kaffeine-Xine
engine (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xine-lib/+bug/125182)
so I proposed a workaround using the Kaffeine-GStreamer engine
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xine-
lib/+bug/125182/comments/8). But when I apply this workaround, the
player misbehaves (the player doesn't do the following things when using
the Xine engine):

- The volume bar goes from the bottom of the screen to the top after the engine change (but it's easy to drag it again to the bottom).
- When opening any video file from Nautilus, the player doesn't switch automatically to the Player Window (remains on the Start Window, it does switch when using the Xine engine). The option "Don't switch to player window" in the Playlist menu is unchecked. This happens even if I click the Stop button and then the Play button. It's necessary to click on the Player Window tab to watch the video.
- In the Behavior section of the player options, I've checked 'Pause video when window is minimized'. Video is paused when I minimize the window, but it doesn't resume automatically when the window is restored (with the Xine engine it does resume when the window is restored). It's necessary to click the Pause button to resume.

Please tell me what other information can I provide.
