VLC on a nexus 5 - Android kitkat

[hchonnexus5]

The version currently on the play store crash when the playing starts.

But the current nightly works on my nexus 5.

Can I do something to help the developpers ?

Yeah, we are fully aware of the problem and working on a fix.

For now you could use and keep up to date with the problem.

Same problem on nexus 7 after update to KitKat. Was perfect on 4.3., but now crashes when attempting to start a video.

Same here. Got the KitKat-Update for my Nexus 4 two days ago and VLC stopped working (crash on opening video file). So I installed a nightly build (http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/and ... 7-0108.apk) which seems to work again.
