I tried but sadly result is same crashing.

This isn't good at all. This error usually means the plugins have been compiled without NT 5.1 compatibility. https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=515927#p515927 Can you try with \plugins\codec\libdav1d_plugin.dll from VLC 3.0.12 ?

I am trying to play a video file with av01 codec in windows xp but vlc 3.0.14 player crashes immediately, is it a bug or some setting needs to be changed.
