Bug on VLC 2.1.5 - Appcrash

[pkoka]

I don't have a 64-bits Windows installation; I cannot try.

And VLC cannot "crash Windows". If Windows crashes while using VLC, you have either a device driver or a hardware problem.

In fact it does not crash when you move or delete ntdll.dll in System32 and SysWow64.
Windows Crash when you restart the PC.

I never suggested that you should move or delete ntdll.dll. Of course, Windows will not longer work if you do such a stupid thing.

Yesterday I clicked on file associations Button and VLC crashed. It happens several times - I was trying it a few times. After that I deinstalled 2.15 and re-installed 2.13 - It worked. Then I updated to 2.14 - It worked - after the update to 2.15 I had my crash again. So I switched back to 2.14 and wonder what the reason for that crash would be.

Win7 - 64Bit

Hello all, welcome (this is my first post on this forum)

I have a CRASH ON EXIT (end of file or "q" / "esc") when I play few video files at once eg.:
vlc.exe file1.mp4 file2.mp4
When I play one file - there is no crash (clean exit, everything OK).

Completely uninstall VLC 2.1.5 and download and install VLC 2.1.4, and that should fix it!

VLC 2.1.5 Bug !!!
Set up associations ... C++ Runtime error

[kgregs]

I am support for an intermediate school that uses VLC with an AVN 200 encoder to do a live broadcast. I am running a 32 bit Windows 7 on the computer I am using for the VLC stream. I am unable to find a solution or workaround for 2.1.5 runtime error and the crash. It is extremely disruptive to our broadcast as we do it live. I saw that version 2.1.4 does not have this issue, but that won't work as it is only 64 bit. So I am looking for some help.

Thanks!!

Guys i had the same problem. But know i am using another installer and it doesn't crash anymore.

I downloaded my previous VLC from here:
http://www.chip.de/downloads/VLC-player ... 13913.html

And the new one from here:
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videol ... -win64.exe

This is the "real" installer from VLC Media Player. I uninstalled the previous one with the new installer and installed VLC Media Player again, this time with the new installer. And look, no crash anymore.

DedSec, the bugs are present when using the "real" installer too. Goodness, it has been forever since VLC had any updates.

Well i had problems on 32 and 64 bit. open up and would just freeze. could move seeker but nothing happens.


I tried the latest 3.0.0 nightly build and there are no issues at all. I got the 7z one cuz avast said the exe was a virus so whatever.
