The call to gst_element_set_state in the MediaPlayerPrivateGStreamer destructor never returns and blocks the main thread when the previous call to the function failed.

Comment on attachment 262759 [details] Patch The pipeline needs to be set to NULL state so that resources are correctly freed. This seems to be a work-around for a GStreamer bug. Can you please file a bug in GNOME's bugzilla if you manage to reproduce this issue outside of WebKit?

If this is really specific to Youtube it would be nice to know if there's a deadlock somewhere, a session in the debugger could help figure this out :)

What do you think about setting the NULL state from a thread to avoid blocking the main thread?

Is this still a problem?

Since WinCairo has its own media player implementation wrapping MediaFoundation now and nobody is actively using WinCairo with gstreamer, I'm going to say this isn't needed.
