I am curious to know if there are any MacOSX developers here who use libvlc in their own applications, and in particular if they have any success using libvlc_media_player_set_nsobject().
I have seen this function working intermittently over the years, the current best information I have is that it works just fine when using vlc 2.0.3, but on any later version such as 2.0.4 or the latest 2.1.x-git.
The failure is a segfault, at least in this application that uses Java bindings (I am reposting someone else's crash dump, this is the only information I have):
