 GStreamer | gst-plugins | Ver: 0.8.8

           Summary: Explicit pipeline to ffdec_mpeg4 acting differently to
                    playbin
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.8.8
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: adelaney at cs.may.ie

Please describe the problem:
I have an avi file downloaded from
http://plastic.fork.pl/195_95_party_version.avi which dosn't play nice in Totem.
 However it plays well with 
 gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=195_95_party_version.avi ! avidemux !
ffdec_mpeg4 ! xvimagesink
and my playbin seems to set up the same pipeline http://pastebin.ca/14670

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the file in Totem, see cruddy playback
2. Construct above pipeline, see nice playback
3. profit!!

Actual results:
Totem plays the video badly, the explicit pipeline dosn't

Expected results:
I'd like Totem to play the video as nicely as the explicit pipeline.

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
I know nothing about this whole thing.  All the information posted comes from
alley_cat and hawkes on #gstreamer.  I just couldn't play a nice video :(

alley_cat said "looks like a problem with the avi demuxer, if i convert the file
to matroska it plays fine"
