Improve 'logcat dumps' system?
Posted: 18 Apr 2014 14:09
I'm using the last 0.9.3 build and I still got some crashes. I'm eager to provide you some logcats but the built-in system to made these dumps could be improved IMHO.

When I manually dump the logcat, the file is written at the root of the emulated sdcard (/storage/emulated/0/vlc_logcat_xxxxxx.log) :
I can see the file with Android apps (ES File Explorer or OI File Manager) but not on my Windows computer when connected with USB (MTP Device - Kindle Fire HD - CM10.2). If I move these files in a subfolder with one of these two apps, I can now see them with my PC on the mounted MTP device.
Weird.
=================================================================================
Is it possible to reset the current logcat before executing the steps that made the app crashed? Or dumping only the last 10 minutes of activity? The current generated file logs some older events that need to be cut out before shared with you.
Is is still true VLC leaves a file behind when it crashes? It doesn't happen to me.
Last thing, in the "Debug logs" menu, can you add a "Save to file" next to the "Copy to clipboard" button?
Thanks!
