Bug#803325: vlc: "failed to create video output" with video memory output; SIGSEGV with other video output

User User nospam at gmail.com
Wed Oct 28 19:46:11 UTC 2015


Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.1-4+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Any video played causes VLC to crash.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Launching from file manager, ommand line, or media library any video file crashes VLC on this up-to-date Debian testing system. I disabled VDPAU, window decoration, accelerated video output - but there was no change.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
Segmentation fault.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
Video rendered.

After installing vlc-dbg, and runing
gdb --args vlc -vvvv /home/user/somefile.mp4
I got:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/vlc -vvvv /home/user/somefile.mp4

Of note, this is a dual video card system, where Stretch currently detects only the Intel adapter.
Yesterday, was compaining about failing to find VDPAU libraries, so I installed, uninstalled drivers, to no avail.
