vlc1.0.5: ncurses && web interfaces both segfaulting

Under archlinux when I call

Code: Select all

cvlc ./myplaylist.m3u
cvlc segfaults as soon as I change the shoucast radio station in the ncurses playlist
(navigate with your cursor keys and hit enter on the station name)

Please do call cvlc with the following two shoutcast stations in your playlist

Code: Select all

http://188.165.195.127:8070 http://67.202.67.18:8158
and change the station. Can you confirm the segfault?

This doesn't happen when I call

Code: Select all

vlc ./myplaylist
but I rather prefer cvlc + ncurses of course.


The same thing happens to vlc's WEB Interface!

The built-in httpd daemon starts without errors according to vlc's console message.
But again as soon I visit the page f.i. http://127.0.0.1:8085 and
click on any control on this page vlc crashes (segfaults) immediately!

Compare this also to the following bug report on

http://www.uzbl.org/bugs/index.php?do=d ... ask_id=222

opera "http://www.radioblagon.com/"
or
uzbl-browser "http://www.radioblagon.com/"

in both cases vlc isn't able to detect the stream ( & seems to crash). In the latter case uzbl-browser crashes as well.
http://www.radioblagon.com is listed on the http://www.shoutcast.com site
I don't know if these issues are related though.

Note: To be on the safe side I removed my ~/.config/vlc/vlcrc and started vlc with --reset-config
The issues still remain.
