It still crashes for me with 2.24.0-0ubuntu1 with the following information in a terminal:

The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 90 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19)
  (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.)

I'll attach the problematic video.

according to upstream this is more like a gstreamer plugins base issue, reassigning.

Same my machine had been suspended a few times and idle for a few hours. Totem was apparently open and paused at the time.
