Sorry, forgot I posted this. Corrected. ** Description changed:
- When playing videos with VLC, I noticed that the memory usage only - increases when going from movie to movie. After a few videos have been - played, the window stops drawing and audio keeps playing, but any - attempts to close the program appears to stop it. But.. it actually just - hangs itself in the background until killed from the system monitor. - This happens every single time I use it, without fail, and it's - extremely annoying. This is probably not the first time this has been - mentioned. + After playing a few "high resolution" (not 4k or 1080p) videos in VLC, + the screen eventualy stops drawing the video. If you then try to close + it, you close the window, but the process has actually hung itself in + the background. The videos I tested it with were 640x480, if that helps. - *console* - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - [00007f95516c6fb8] avcodec decoder: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding. - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - [00007f9551617508] avcodec decoder: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding. - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - [00007f9554009708] avcodec decoder: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding. - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'swscale' - [00007f9540066848] core video output error: Failed to add filter 'swscale' - - -crashes here- - - - - - running on MINT + https://pastebin.com/R1BFLzFV ** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1758821 Title: VLC memory leak & crash after playing a few videos To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1758821/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
