Segmentation fault

****End of command output****

Note that the unskinned vlc works a treat, but as soon as you try to start with the skins 2 interface, whether from or command line or changing the default from within the application, using Settings>Preferences>Interface>Main Interface>"Set Interface Module to skinable interface" -- then restart vlc then the Segmentation fault results.

The app works well but its not pretty, so I'm living with it... just posting to give feedback on this platform.

If a fix is available great, if not c'est la vie.

[ipkiss]

Do you also get the crash when using 'vlc --rest-config --reset-plugins-cache -I skins2'?

If so, could you give the stack trace for the crash please? To do that:
- in a terminal, run 'ulimit -c unlimited'
- reproduce the crash, this generates a 'core' file (or a similar name)
- run 'gdb vlc core' and at the prompt type 'bt'

[Opposition]

Hi
I ran the commands...

ulimit -c unlimited

then

vlc --reset-config --reset-plugins-cache -I skins2 (this produced file core.4079)

then

gdb vlc core.4079

here is the outoput from the 'bt' command

Please let me know if I can help further

OK, it is the same crash as the one mentioned in this thread. I don't know what's wrong exactly in the FT2Font::drawString() method, and it would be very helpful if you could compile VLC in debug mode. It would allow to have the exact line number for the crash, and it would allow to test a fix for the problem.

Would you mind compiling VLC yourself? I can help you for this if needed (by PM, e-mail, or on this forum, as you prefer).
I'm afraid I can't help you further without this...
