[Bug 647063] Re: Jerky h.264 video playback

[Rick Spencer]

Any chance we can pick up this patch in time for Maverick? Video
playback is a core function for many many of our users.

Bug description:
Playback is jerky with h.264 videos.
For example, if you watch a video in Totem with the Arte plugin (I maintain the relative package), GStreamer only plays half frames.

Upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630088

This bug was fixed by upstream in this commit: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-good/commit/?id=9e7b890a22507f06a34ed7f7956fb02392348187

I confirm that this fix works as expected, h.264 videos are now smooth (as in VLC or MPlayer).

I attached a debdiff.
Please, backport this to Maverick!
