The VideoLAN Forums

Can anybody help to see what issue it could be and how to fix?

This happens a few time with vlc for android. I don't know if it is fixed in new version. I am using the checkout with last check in log as below. Will try recently to see.

You should use the top of the git.

Or you could try using b01969a4bfe1b2fa4580f5e8df08dc29566d7a16 and just upgrade the libvlc, although this might require some work to get working properly.
