I'm not sure if it's my system, but I get the sense that gxine is simply 
not very "reliable" for viewing broadband media.  I tested it with real 
media and it plays well for a little then the playback sort of breaks up 
(audio included).  The segmentation fault shows up mostly when playing 
mms streams (on my system).  I'm more inclined to test a little more and 
then file a bug report if necessary.  Sorry for the post.
