GES 1.14.3 -- Timeline does not play smoothly

[David Ing]

I just built the latest on the 1.14 branch.  (I can see your commits in the
commit history.)

What is happening now is that the video in the lower-right corner plays
smoothly until just before the first slide transition.  When I say "slide
transition" I mean the point in time when the background image gets changed.

At the point of the first slide transition, the foreground video freezes on
a single frame.  It stays frozen until the next slide transition, at which
time it switches to a new frame, but the video is remains frozen.  The
video never un-freezes.  On each slide transition, it simply displays a new
frame but there is never any motion to the video ... it is always frozen on
a single frame.
