Nightly crashes when hardware accelerated decoding is enable

Postby Marco275 » 01 Feb 2013 09:33

Hi.
Since a few weeks VLC nightly started to crash when I started a video file, finaly I figured out that disabeling hardware accelerated decoding in the 'input/codecs' section solves the problem.
But before that it ran fine and I didn't change any settings.
It's running on windows 8 64bit and 8800GT videocard.

thnx.

Did you updated your video drivers?
