Bug Description

Binary package hint: vlc

VLC, which under Hardy performed flawlessly, first plays audio but no video, then crashes. Since update (10/7) crashes after load of either file or disc. Currently using Ibex 8.10 development branch. I expected VLC to play either the avi or iso... it crashed.
