Comment 2 for bug 1072494

A similar issue is mentioned at their site: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=105401 So it seems the VLC team is already aware of it.

The test results are as follows:
 - on OS X 10.6 with VLC version 2.0.0 up to 2.0.3 the playback works, it crashes with 2.0.4
 - on OSX 10.8 with VLC version 2.0.3 the playback works, it crashes with 2.0.4
The working VLC executables can be found at http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/2.0.3/macosx/
