VLC crashes when I try to "Convert/Save" Network stream

[booga]

On my Android smartphone, I have an app called IP Camera. The Android phone and my Linux Mint computer are connected by an ad-hoc network (hotspot) I created on the Linux computer.

There is no problem if I choose VLC>Media>Open_Network_Stream (Ctrl+N).
But VLC crashes if I choose VLC>Media>Convert/Save (Ctrl+R) > Network tab.

Please know that the network URL is the same for both. Why does VLC crash?

Here is what terminal shows when I do Convert/Save Network:

$ vlc

Update to VLC 2.2.4.

Update to VLC 2.2.4.

Should I go with https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/2.2.4-4? If so, how do i install that? I'm on Mint 18.
UPDATE: I think the above link is not available for Mint 18. It's for newer versions of Mint/Ubuntu.

or with Master Daily (3.0.0)?
