I have called libvlc_media_player_release function in a small QT App at destructor of Main Widget, and it cause a segment fault when I close the App. If I comment the line with this function, it works fine. (libvlc 1.1.5)

Somebody know how to fix this problem?

I have seen similar problems with 1.1.5 and 1.1.6 in Delphi.

Can you remove the libfluidsynth_plugin.dll from the plugins folder (C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\plugins), and then try your app and get back to me to see if it still occurs?

I'm using Fedora Linux, not Windows! I think this is a bug of libvlc access to invalid memory.

I found where cause this problem, by use valgrind debugger. The problem in Qt, not in libvlc. It works fine now...
