VLC crashes when a file is on the playlist

Postby LMIlmi » 26 Jul 2018 16:07

When I play a playlist of 2 files(by dropping a folder of music on the VLC icon), the player crashes. But when I click on the file directly, it plays normally.

The crash happens with a mp4 file.

This is a Windows 7 system and the player is v3.03

This is the log file. I can send the music files.
To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.

From windows command line or linux or macos terminal, launch vlc with options -vv and --logfile=file

  • Windows example: vlc.exe -vv --logfile=c:\vlclog.txt
  • Linux example: vlc -vv --logfile=vlclog.txt, or vlc -vv 2>&1 > logfile.txt
Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)

Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.

I have already sent the log file, but I can't see that post. By the way, music files I am talking about are really mp4 videos but I play them for music. I have also tested Directx, Dxdiag gave no errors.

The room temperature is a bit high here. But VLC crashes very easily now.

I reinstalled the VLC and that seems to have fixed the problem.
