I fully agree. I stopped using totem because of this bug and switched to Audacious. Feature-wise, I liked totem better, but I just couldn't trust it.

In hopes of catching some attention attached debdiff

The attachment "totem_3.6.3-0ubuntu4.debdiff" of this bug report has been identified as being a patch in the form of a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. In the event that this is in fact not a patch you can resolve this situation by removing the tag 'patch' from the bug report and editing the attachment so that it is not flagged as a patch. Additionally, if you are member of the ubuntu-sponsors team please also unsubscribe the team from this bug report.

What is the test file / files that I can use to reproduce this bug?
I have been hit by something described in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693983
but running:

   rm -rf ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/

fixed everything for me.

This particular bug does not have/need any test file(s).
It's simply about adding multiple files to totem's playlist, then switching between files in the playlist (if one gets that far

The only thing I see that deleting, in my case registry.x86_64.bin, does is makes it more likely one can add a number of individual files without totem crashing just from adding files
Switching between added files almost always results in crash, more likely if all audio files but happens with mixed audio, video files or video only.

Will attach a quick vid showing immediate crash switching from 1st. to 2nd track in playlist
(and I assure you have tested fully on 'unadulterated' fresh 13.04 installs unlike one vid was made on.

For comp. a patched Videos, took liberty of adding 3 files, switching is fine. Put in a mp4 so can be viewed in browser if desired

This bug was fixed in the package totem - 3.6.3-0ubuntu4
