Totem won't Start

**Tanshaydar** · 31-Jul-2012, 07:24

I tend to use Totem to listen the tracks and watch the videos I have since it's quite useful. Nevertheless recently I was messing around with the plugins and it stopped working, then closed.
Now, whenever I try to open Totem, it opens for one second then closes. If I try to open it from the terminal, it gives me this error:

Code:

tansel@linux-dawe:~> totem

(totem:12279): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_int: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_INT (value)' failed


(totem:12279): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_int: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_INT (value)' failed
Segmentation fault

I'm using:
Linux linux-dawe.site 3.5.0-1-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 26 09:15:49 UTC 2012 (79fb0ad) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
w/ Gnome 3.2.1

If possible, try removing totem-plugins package (or disabling them). Reports of this bug in other places say it has something to do with python which might be one of the plugins.

When I open YaST / Software / Software Management and do a search on totem, here is what I have loaded:

This is in SuSE Paste and works with Firefox but might not with Chrome. I have eight Totem Packages install. You can confirm your Multimedia setup with my bash script mmcheck that you can find here:
