User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060027 (Debian-1.8.0.1-11) Epiphany/2.14

Xfmedia crash when changing desktop while playing a video fullscreen, with this error:

The program 'xfmedia' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 333 error_code 8 request_code 42 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. play a video in xfmedia
2. switch to fullscreen (F)
3. change desktop

Actual Results:  
Crash with an X Window System error


The crash occurs with xfwm 4.4B1, xfwm 4.2 and icewm.

The bug was first reported by a debian user here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=368196 an reproduced on a linux/powerpc (xfce 4.4B1) and a linux/amd64 (xfce 4.2) boxes.

Yes, I've seen this before on x86 as well, but I have a lot of trouble reproducing it, and I don't really know why it happens anyway...

Xfmedia is unmaintained.
