This seems also to be caused by a problem in ffmpeg, possibly related to bug 226. After upgrading to ffmpeg-0.5-2.fc11 from Fedora-11 I can no longer reproduce the problem.

Upgrading to 0.5 is a bit too much work. It could require upgrading x264 as well and rebuilding our whole multimedia stack. And I don't know if the vlc version we have in F-10 would be compatible with ffmpeg-0.5 and possibly the new ffmpeg. So the less troublesome option would be to find out where it segfaults and fix that (possibly by back-porting a fix from some later SVN revision).

In other words: please provide a full gdb backtrace.

Don't worry for vlc, it's recent enought.

Once that said, updating the whole multimedia stack in F-10 with around two months remaining until EOL is problematic.

Sorry I couldn't fix it in time. The crash is gone in F-11 and later releases.
