I have encountered this bug. While playing videos, firefox would use quickly consume all 16G of my ram before crashing. Downgrading from 1.4.5-r1 back to 1.2.4-r1 fixed the issue.
do you get the same when not applying the libav-9 patch in the ebuild?
Also try with ffmpeg-2.6.3
I have the same problem with media-plugins/gst-plugins-libav-1.4.5-r1 in firefox 38.0.1 Playing any html5 videos, firefox consumes all of free ram quickly. After that, the whole system just hangs. (In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #3) > do you get the same when not applying the libav-9 patch in the ebuild? I have tried to build gst-plugins-libav without applying the libav-9 patch patch and it seems like memory leak has dissapeared.

Please give it a few more tries and report back to remember me to drop it

Well... I am unsure if dropping the libav-9 patch will also affect its compat with livav-11 (the current stable) as I see before of that patch the ebuild was forcing libav-10 Maybe we could simply wait for ffmpeg-2.6 being stabilized (its stabilization is already in progress)
I can also reproduce this with 1.4.5-r1, but the problem goes away when I remove the libav-9 patch. It seems that it the patch is applied unconditionally. Should this really be the case on systems that are running ffmpeg? (In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #8) > Maybe we could simply wait for ffmpeg-2.6 being stabilized (its > stabilization is already in progress) I believe users shouldn't be forced to upgrade their ffmpeg version over this.
Ideally the patch should be applied always and not cause problems like this but... Personally I would drop completely the patch... but I am unsure about how will the plugin work then with current stable libav-11.3 (as I run ffmpeg only) :/
I have encountered this bug on stable firefox 32 and firefox 38. It reliably occurs when any HTML5 video is played, even as an ad or feature in a news article. YouTube is also affected. I am avoiding YouTube until this bug is fixed, but even then, because of the unexpected ads and videos in articles, I still crash. My system will completely stall, and the disk I/O light will remain fully on. It is impossible to shutdown the system gracefully, so I have to force power-off by holding the power button down.
The original should be fixed now
