Bug Description

Minitube crashing in Lubuntu 13.04 720p 1080p. It seems to be a buffering issue. I have slow high-speed Internet of 1 Mbps. At 720p and 1080p videos often stop 2-3 times/minute to buffer/download further.

The same video will play in full at 360p but crash after few seconds at 720p, and after fewer seconds at 1080p. If I pause the video at the very beginning, it is able to buffer a bit more of the video and plays a bit longer before crashing.

So, there is definitely a problem when the video stop playing to buffer. It seems that Minitube crashes when it stops playing and tries to buffer after the initial start of the video.

I hope the problem can be fixed. I cannot play any HD videos.
Note: If you have higher-speed Internet, it will likely not happen.
