I use VLC for all my video needs and have done so for years without any serious problems but now when I switched to Intel I'm experiencing some major problems; constant kernel panics whenever I use VLC!
It does not seem to matter what I'm doing in VLC to cause these crashes, whether I'm playing in windowed view or fullscreen, whether it's avi, mpg, mov, wmv, mkv or any other format they all seem to cause kernel panics.
Usually it happens when I'm playing large (700+Mb) avi files in fullscreen but I think that's mostly because that's the kind of files I most frequently play. There's nothing fancy going on, the video is simply playing in fullscreen and the boom; the frame freezes and the audio gets stuck in a loop like a scratched cd, a transparent gray layer covers the screen and a message comes up saying I should restart my computer.
This happens with no other applications running and I simply don't understand it.
-And when it's not causing kernel panics it's constantly crashing and generally acting very unstable.
I've tried reinstalling VLC, deleting preferences and installing again but nothing works.
I'm running the same version of VLC on my PowerBook 17" with the same OS without any problems and I've never encountered a kernel panic on that one so I'm thinking it must be an Intel problem
Any insight into this problem would be greatly appreciated.
