VLC 3.0.3 Vetinari crashes when opening videos with bookmarks

Postby Rayfire » 03 Jul 2018 18:44

I have a playlists with many long videos. I have made a habit of making bookmarks in the videos and then saving the playlist so they'd stick. I couldn't just move between them like chapters, but I could keep my favorite spots. Didn't even need the Moments plugin. Since upgrading to 3.0.3 when I try to open any video with saved bookmarks, the VLC player immediately crashes. It goes to the trying to resolve screen for three seconds and then just says close program. It isn't the video either, because if I open the video's folder, drop it in to the player again, and then play, it plays fine. I can even make new bookmarks and save, close it, and open up again, video plays no issue. If I had to hazard a guess I'd say that the old bookmarks don't agree with the new version.

Is there a workaround for this? It's a very long playlist and I'd rather not have to redo every bookmark in it.

This is on Windows 10 v 1703 if that helps.

I press play on the video it doesn't start, says VLC Media Player has encountered a problem, attempting to resolve, the working graphic scrolls through, and then it says VLC Media Player Has Stopped Working A Problem caused the program to stop working correctlyt. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then the Close Program button. No attempt to upload anything to Videolan.
