exactly!Imho its time to extensive bugseek. And for the first bugfix-only-release. Without new features.
VLC has a serious deficiency in developers. We develop what we need and want personally a lot of the time. However VLC has gotten so large that this isn't a proper development cycle anymore. Still without the development team of programs like MPlayer, we just can't do that much.exactly!Imho its time to extensive bugseek. And for the first bugfix-only-release. Without new features.
If I can help you on testing new builds of videolan, I'm happy to do so.@ jvh: BTW. You seem to have certain knowledge on programming for Mac OS X. Are you interested in taking part of VLC's future development? It is not as hard as it might seem actually.
Got the same problem here, only using OSX 10.3.9.After upgrading from 0.8.1 to 0.8.2, I am unable keep VLC open. Within max 8 secs it unexpectedly quits. This happens both when I just open VLC from apps folder, or when i click a file that opens in VLC - it will play a few seconds, then just quit. 0.8.1 worked fine, but reinstalling htat didn't help either...
Restarts, repaired permissions etc no worky.
OSX v 10.4.1, had APE installed but after reading above posts unistalled it to no avail.
Disabling APE does not entirely solves my problem...This means the unsanity software is making the VLC application crash.
Unsanity APE is still a hack. and running on an unstable 10.4.2 Developer software release as well. That's like two unstable elements on top of eachother.
I deleted that file, but still crashing after a few seconds...NSRaiseError. I have seen this before. you need to delete your org.videolan.vlc.plist preference file.

I use the MacOS X 10.4.1.
No, because 0.8.2 works for at least 433,407 people (only on OSX. there are at least 1,350,528 windows users as well) and only the few who tried APE have problems with it.Wouldn't it be sensible to remove 0.82 from download on the OSX version and leave 0.81 until this is sorted?
