Hello again,
I finally found where the problem is coming from (well, kind of): I had
downloaded mp4 files recorded on a Galaxy S with a CM11 firmware, and
the files have a format which seems quite special, as vlc, avplay and
mplayer have also their problem with those films BUT they don't crash!
Whereas digikam and gwenview both do crash on a directory with those
files (and don't without them), meaning the issue is indeed rather at
lib(k)exiv level. As the bug reports I referred to seem to hint at the
fact that libkexiv is responsible for error handling, here we are!
I can share privately the offending files if someone is willing to fix
the issue, which is less important than initially thought.
I hope all the bug control commands are correct...
Thanks, Eric
