I don't know about that particular error. But you say it can't play
any stream. I guess that a dependency is not there. I would try:
* Try a different player. Try vlc. Try mplayer.
apt-get install vlc
apt-get install mplayer
Do you have recommends turned off? If so then one of the recommends
for totem might actually be needed. I am not sure what would be the
easiest way to suggest that you install the recommends associated with
totem.
Recommends: gstreamer1.0-libav, gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly, gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio, totem-plugins, grilo-plugins-0.2
Not having a better way I would probably suggest this:
apt-get purge totem
apt-get -o APT::Install-Recommends=1 install totem
But if someone else suggested something better then that would be a
fine thing too.
