The VideoLAN Forums

I have a Java/SWT application that loads (and unloads) multiple instances of VLC (1.1.5) via invoking libvlc directly to show video streams from some local video cameras. As the users click on different application views, the app stops/unloads existing VLC instance and loads/starts new ones. At some point during this process the app just comes to a grinding halt with a crash dialog box showing the following details:

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH

The reason I think this is a NVidia graphics card/driver issue is because this doesn't happen on any of the laptops with Intel graphics cards. Also the "Fault Module Name" above is the name of a NVidia driver DLL.

Installation details:
VLC v1.1.5
Intel Core i7 Q820 1.73 GHz
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
NVidia GeForce GTX 285M
4 GB RAM

Cameras: A combination of 10 cameras, most of which are set to stream via either HTTP/MJPEG and a few set to RTSP/MPEG4.

Does any of this point to anything I can use to diagnose this issue further? Has anyone seen or run into this issue with VLC on NVidia hardware?

Thank you all in advance for any helpful/useful replies.

Cheers,
