Libvlc Crash

Postby pecana » 29 Jul 2017 18:34

Hello I am facing some crash on android using libvlc while releasing the MediaPlayer:

Code: Select all

07-29 15:28:22.342 3619 4720 E VLC-std : LibVLC fatal error destroying mutex (16) in thread 4723 at ../../src/android/thread.c:113 in vlc_mutex_destroy 07-29 15:28:22.342 3619 4720 E VLC-std : Error message: Device or resource busy 07-29 15:28:22.342 3619 4720 E VLC-std : ../../src/android/thread.c:113: vlc_mutex_destroy: assertion "!"destroying mutex"" failed --------- beginning of crash 07-29 15:28:22.342 3619 4723 F libc : ../../src/android/thread.c:113: vlc_mutex_destroy: assertion "!"destroying mutex"" failed .......... 07-29 15:28:22.541 3619 4723 F libc : Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT), code -6 in tid 4723 (pool-3-thread-3)
What could be ?

Thank you

You're destroying a media player that's actively used by at least one thread. That's undefined behaviour.

it is happening after calling stop() on MediaPlayer object and then call release() on it

I'm not saying the UB is in your code. It could be in your code. It could be in VLC. It could be in the OS.
