VLC crashes immediately

Postby curano » 10 Aug 2019 15:13

Hello,
Fedora 30
I tried to open a .mp4 file but VLC crashes immediately :

---
[rudolf@olymp ~]$ vlc

I haven't the slightest idea what's going on here?
Any advice available?
Thanks

As today VLC works again. It seems that one of the recent updates of some libraries did the job...
Thanks for your support...
