GES 1.14.3 -- Timeline does not play smoothly

[David Ing]

One more thing ...

In my original email, I mentioned that I had built an application which
consumes GES, and I sent some logs.  I now believe that you should ignore
those logs I sent.  My application had a major problem which may have
caused the problems observed in those logs.
