how to find out which module stops working

Postby didi156 » 09 May 2009 03:00

I'm using vlc to stream a TV-channel from a DVB-S device to another machine over rtp after transcoding to H.264/AAC (vlc 0.9.9 running under Linux).
So far it works quite well, but after some time (some hours / days) audio or video stop working. There aren't any messages telling what got wrong (started from cmdline with -v).
At this point, I can't regularly shutdown vlc, but need to use kill -9.
Is there a way to find out which of the invoked modules crashes?

CPU usages? Ram usage? Message?
