Hi everyone, Just a quick update. I was able to compile VLC without the fontconfig functionality and now i am able to play the live stream with the following options "--no-xlib" and "--no-aduio". This seemed to get ride of the crashing problem that i was facing earlier. I do stil...

apologies but what is gdb?

Hi Remi,

I know that this could be a stupid question, but how can i activate/see the backtrace?

Hi everyone,

Apparently i am bit mistaken.. the application still crashes it is way less than before, but if i open and start the application lets say 3 times, one of the time it crashes on start-up.. is there other functionalities that i need to disable that are not thread safe?

Hi everyone, Just wanna give an update: @sherington: I tired to using the experimental class, it worked but not always. So i decided to compile vlc without the font config using (--disable-fontconfig) and using (--no-xlib) and (--no-audio) and (--no-osd).. The result that it doesn't crash as often a...

Hi everyone, First of all, thanks a million for the discussion and great insight on this problem. I tried the --no-xlib and it works, it doesn't crash as often, however it still does sometimes, but not as bas as before. Unfortunately I am not very familiar on how to capture the error and show what t...

Hello everyone, I am currently writing an application to display a live RTP video stream. I get some latency around 1 second which is not acceptable by the application's requirements. The latency occurs when the video camera is disconnected from the video server and then reconnected. Looking at the ...

Hello everyone, I am currently writing an application where it can display up to 12 monitors of live video streams. The problem that I am currently facing that when I start/stop the application sometimes I get a java fatal error. After searching about the problem, it seems that making multiple calls...
