Thanks for your info, it seems that it's reporting the same error but still not have a solution.
After tried to use unsafe: return (*C.struct_Media)(unsafe.Pointer(c_struct_media)) it reports same error: panic: runtime error: cgo result has Go pointer Any further insights about this issue? many thanks.
