    Movie Player/Totem is choppy and uses up CPU

    When I try playing DVD's in Media Player/Totem the video is choppy and does not sync with the audio. When I started looking at it in detail I see Totem is using up 95% of the CPU which kind of explains it doesn't it. But it still shouldn't be doing this. I then tried the same DVD's using Gnome Media Player and all is fine, perfect video/audio and normal CPU usage.

    So what's the story with Totem then?? What am I missing that's causing this?
    Any advice appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Well I also installed VLC media player and that works fine too. So I have to assume it's something to do with Totem or some dependency.
