Perhaps it is worth mentioning that I had two instances and this happened after I clicked the menu item for hiding in the system tray.

Something has spawned not one but two Qt4 threads from VLC's back. This does not happen upstream. I have no clue what Ubuntu is changing that makes this happen...??

[Rémi Denis-Courmont (rdenis)]

Does it still crash if you transcode from the command line with the Qt4 UI?

Can you spare me the time it takes to learn the command line interrface and give me an example for this usage please?
