Bug 191259 – [GStreamer] video loop sometimes fails

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: Platform

[Philippe Normand]

I think this happens since bug 188645 was fixed. At EOS for a looping video the reported position and duration differ, so the media element doesn't seek back to the beginning...

Patch is ok, but we should have a regression test for it.

Of course it should... But due to the inconsistent (flaky) nature of the issue, it's going to be hard to get one.

There's already a test BTW, marked flaky for a long time already, media/video-loop.html

Does it pass now reliably?

[Philippe Normand]

Even before the patch it passes reliably here.

This is even weirder. This is an important feature that is broken, we should really find a way to test this and avoid regressions. Might be related to the video we are using?
