Problem with playing recorded movies #3

I have a problem when playing recorded movies. I select the movie and a preview appers on the tv. But when I start the movie, my iphone says that it is played on my tv but there is still only the preview image.

It only works when i start the movie and then touch the airplay symbol on my iphone. Then the preview image disappears from the tv. Now i can abort the airplay selection. When i now restart the movie it plays on my tv.

So I can say, the movie does not play, when an image is shown before. The image screen must be closed and than the movie can be played.

Many problems are related to gstreamer. To get it working quiet well i upgraded gstreamer to latest stable:

The biggest problem of previous version of streamer was with m3u8 (apple http live streaming). Image freeze and seek didn't work. With latest gstreamer stable the situation is REALLY better. Unfortunately (also the latest stable) seem doesn't work with AirVideo... but it seem work well with other tools (for example plex). An example of image with openairplay and an updated gstreamer is the sifteam image.
