Comment 3 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-07-27 14:53:56 UTC
It's just a matter of rebuilding media-plugins/gst-plugins-ffmpeg. But why the rebuild hasn't been triggered with upgrade of ffmpeg?
Comment 4 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-07-27 14:59:54 UTC
Hm, the problem hasn't been solved, actually. I still get errors on stdin/err, but Firefox no longer crashes after rebuild of gst-plugins-ffmpeg:

Comment 5 Ian Stakenvicius (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-07-28 14:40:21 UTC
Interesting; I haven't had any crashes with ff-bin-31, however crashes with firefox-31 (from source) is why i haven't committed that ebuild to the tree yet.

I also haven't had any issues with WebM, however h264 has been broken for me whenever gst-plugins-vaapi has been installed.

I'll continue to look into this.  Thanks for reporting!

Dear,
I just had exactly the same problem with media-plugins/gst-plugins-libav.
Same problem :
ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file:
/usr/lib64/gstreamer-1.0/libgstlibav.so

Please either:
- remove it and restart.
- run with --gst-disable-segtrap --gst-disable-registry-fork and debug.

Same solution : recompile the plugin (still error message but no crashes)

Comment 8 pierigno 2014-07-31 21:23:27 UTC
I'm currently using both firefox-bin-31 and firefox-31 compiled with gstreamer enabled and am not experiencing these crashes. Does the issue also occour playing videos at http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html ?

my current setup is:

distro: sabayon
x11-libs/libva-1.3.1
x11-libs/libva-intel-driver-1.3.2
x11-dirvers/xf86-video-intel-2.99.914
Comment 9 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-08-01 09:02:01 UTC
Hm, I no longer see error messages. Strange thing is that I did nothing which could fix the problem.
Comment 10 occ1701 2014-08-01 20:26:13 UTC
Not sure if this is related to this bug but the source version www-client/firefox-31.0 with gstreamer USE crashes with a segfault when accessing any newsstream on http://www.tagesschau.de/

Not related to this bug.  Could be related to bug 514356 , or bug 518528 and others mentioned within..  i thought there was another bug relating to firefox-31 crashes on gstreamer-rendered content but I can't seem to find it at the moment.
Comment 12 Ian Stakenvicius (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-10-18 03:56:48 UTC
Anybody having these issues with firefox or firefox-bin , either 31.2 or 33 ?
Comment 13 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-10-19 08:57:05 UTC
I don't see these error when browsing youtube/html5 anymore.
Comment 14 Ian Stakenvicius (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-10-19 18:59:45 UTC
Thanks!  Closing.
