Nexus 7 - Almost instant crash

[Naphta]

Crashes within 5 seconds on load, can't really say more than that. Just to confirm, this is not a force close, it literally exits without so much as a peep from me.

This is running android 4.1.1

I suspect that one of your media files is causing a native segfault in code somewhere within LibVLC. Try to get a logcat trace: http://wiki.videolan.org/Android_Report_bugs#Logcat_log

Can't get a log, just wont create one, even with ADB.

I can however confirm that with no media files on my sdcard partition that it opens and stays up just fine.

From what I can see is that it fails at the thumbnail creation as that's the part it crashes at (at least all I can see)

Did you enable USB debugging in Android system settings? Maybe that's why, since ADB daemon wouldn't run otherwise.

[Naphta]

USB debugging is indeed on.

mine does this also. has done from new.

re thumbnails. it also crashes if rather than launching the app directly i send it a video file. i don't know if thumbnail generation is still done in the background but i thought it might be relevant.

has any testing been done on Jelly Bean?

[edwardw]

It works on my Galaxy Nexus running Jellybean 4.1.1.

I see you guys pulled VLC Direct from the google play store - any idea when you guys might have it going on 4.1.1 Jellybean? Not rushing...just eager to try it out on the new Nexus 7 tablet

I can get it to work using a Serviio stream (loaded through MediaHouse) but I do have the problem of having incredibly out of sync audio if I pause, jump to a new time or anything like that. MX Player does not share this trait which is why I think its VLC not the actual stream.
