Hi, x264 is the software encoder.

We need full logs until it repeats (you can use pastebin or other to send them). You can get them with vlc -vv.

This is the log you requested:

The freeze started at line 5130 approximately,. It said 'Fullscreen state changed', but the whole screen is black, i can pause the video by pressing space, and i think it worked because the audio stopped. But I cannot move my cursor or select any menu options and I have to force quit the app
