I have found I can cause VLC to lock up if I play a looped AVI file, and move the folder it is contained in. I am using opensuse 11.3.
Code: Select all
me@mypc~> vlc --version
VLC media player 1.1.10 The Luggage (revision exported)

Create AVI file from PNG sequence using FFMPEG command:
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -i images-%4d.png -sameq images.avi
me@mypc~/tmp>file images.avi
images.avi: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 790 x 463, video:
me@mypc~/tmp>vlc images..avi
(opens another terminal)
Code: Select all
me@mypc~> mv tmp tmp2
When the video loops, it spits out (continuously), and uses 200% CPU (2x100%):
Code: Select all
libdvdnav: vm: failed to open/read the DVD
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 4.1.3
libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
libdvdread: Can't stat /home/me/tmp/tmp.avi
This happens every time.
