VLC Mac Crashing - Something to do with subtitle

[deus0ww]

In advanced preferences, I set "Input/Codecs" -> "Track Settings" - > "Subtitle track" to -1 and "Subtitle track ID" to -1. As I watch a lot of anime, these are convenient settings to have subtitle default to on. However this is causing VLC to crash when I open other videos without subtitles (which I'm not allowed to post in part or in full, for work reasons... I asked). Could someone look into this, please, so I'm not stuck using an older version of VLC? Thank you.


The weirdness:
- Nightlies before 2.1.0-RC2 - crashes (early September)
- 2.1.0-RC2 - Works perfectly <- This is what I'm stuck using now.
- Release version 2.1.0 - crashes
- Nightlies of 2.1.1 - still crashing as of today

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

You should file a bug on our trac.

Thank you for replying. Ticket Created: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/9676

Note that this is my first ticket. Hopefully I got most of the details correct...

[deus0ww]

This doesn't appear to be the same crash as mine...

Of course, it's not. Topic split.

[Mufashi]

I will create a new topic then.

According to Trac, this issue seems to be fixed. However, there hasn't been a new nightly build of 2.2.0 since Feb. 3rd (before the fix). Could someone look into making 2.2.0 nightlies available again? Thank you.
