The VideoLAN Forums

Hello
I am using VLCJ (see https://github.com/caprica/vlcj) to access libVLC from my Java project ("kissPhoto")

Whenever I use or while media is paused

libVLC 4.0.0 (nightly from January and from today, 16.Feb tried) results in a MessageBox

Visual C++ Runtime Library
Assertion failed!
Program: C:\Program Files\kissPhoto\kissPhoto.exe
File: /builds/videolan/vlc/extras/packag.../video_output.c
Line: 1478
Expression: !sys->pause.is_on||!is_paused
For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts

By closing the MessageBox also the virtual Java Machine is ended.

The error can be reproduced with mp4, mp3 and wav files.

I asked Mark Lee, the author of VLCJ, about this issue. He replied that his library just forwards my call to libVLC.
Is this a known bug in libVLC 4.0.0?
Where is the right place to report this bug (if it is one

Regards Ingo

Hi,

The proper place for reporting libvlc bugs would be https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/

Keep in mind that LibVLC 4.0 is currently in development so these kind of bugs are expected on a regular basis. You should switch to vlcj4/libvlc3 if you want stability.

Thanks. I will post it there.
Of course this is only VLC4 is currently only beta. I just want to be sure that this becomes a "known" bug
