Totem Movie Player suddenly can't play You Tube Videos

Asked by John Laurence Glori

Just want to report this problem. I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 in my PC and Laptop. I used Movie Player to watch You Tube videos and it worked perfectly. However, just a couple of days ago, it simply stopped working. Sometimes, when I try to search for some You Tube videos, this error message would come-up: "Error Looking Up Video URI. Automount failed: mountpoint for org.gtk.vfs.mountpoint.http already running."

Then, when I try to play a video again, this error message would appear: "An error occured: Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file."

What could have happened? Why did it just stop working when it was working perfectly before? I haven't installed any updates or anything on my PC or laptop before this happened.

Sure hope somebody could help. Thanks!
