VLC frequently crashes when watching http://www.americafree.tv/VLC/
This happens on both Ubuntu Edgy and Windows XP SP2. I also have a crash report automatically generated by VLC after a crash while using Ubuntu Edgy.

This is using a new codec from ffmpeg. having the very latest and greatest ffmpeg is one way to have this problem not occur that often. But new codecs are by definition always unstable. So there isn't that much that can be done.
