I've noticed that with F9 for some deeply annoying reason totem defaults to using the xine backend, and the totem-backend selector appears to do nothing, thus I have to start it from the commandline every time to get gstreamer use.

Apparently this is a side effect of a upgrade from a previous release. In a fresh installation, according to the spec, gstreamer has a higher priority than xine backend. If you have done a fresh installation and see this issue, a bug report should be filed. Meanwhile you can remove the totem-xine sub package.

It appears that you are correct. Based on your info, I did a yum remove \*totem\* and then reinstalled it one at a time. I don't understand why the yum update didn't work correctly, though.

Would this need a note on the F9 issues page?
