The gdb backtrace.
This is the gdb backtrace with all debug packages installed when VLC crashes playing the file.
(you are the maintainer) Hi Manuel, (In reply to Manuel Hiebel from comment #2) > (you are the maintainer) ah, yes, I see now. Well, I think the problem was caused by the Cauldron ffmpeg upgrade from 2.0.x to 2.1.3: <<<< ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r581473 | fwang | 2014-02-04 18:57:28 +0200 (Tue, 04 Feb 2014) | 1 line Changed paths: M /cauldron/ffmpeg/current/SOURCES/sha1.lst M /cauldron/ffmpeg/current/SPECS/ffmpeg.spec new version 2.1.3 >>>> ffmpeg is owned by nobody (and I suppose I can adopt it) and it is known for being susceptible to breaking backward compatibility between different middle digits versions. I guess I'll have to ask the VLC developers if they can make a new release or provide me with a temporary downstream patch - perhaps one that I can backport. Maybe I should open a bug report on their bug tracker or ask on IRC . I'll see what my options are. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish Hi all, this is just a note that building and installing ffmpeg-2.0.3 using this script: <<<<< #!/bin/bash ./configure --prefix="$HOME/apps/multimedia/ffmpeg" --enable-shared >>>>> And then running: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/apps/multimedia/ffmpeg/lib/ vlc /home/music/Music/mp3s/Captain\ Jack\ -\ Iko\ Iko-DjRXGCHYO6c.webm Results in VLC playing the file to completion without an issue. On the other hand without the LD_LIBRARY_PATH assignment, vlc segfaults after playing a few seconds.
