The last problem is probably the easyest one and is the most reproducable: tv tv # vlc -v --reset-plugins-cache VLC media player 0.8.5 Janus starting VLC root wrapper... using UID 0 (root) *************************************** * Running VLC as root is discouraged. * *************************************** It is potentially dangerous, and might not even work properly. [00000001] main vlc warning: config file /root/.vlc/vlcrc does not exist yet [00000001] main vlc warning: cannot load module `/usr/lib/vlc/stream_out/libstream_out_switcher_plugin.so' (/usr/lib/vlc/stream_out/libstream_out_switcher_plugin.so: undefined symbol: avcodec_init) [00000001] main vlc warning: config file /root/.vlc/vlcrc does not exist yet Remote control interface initialized. Type `help' for help. signal 2 received, terminating vlc - do it again in case it gets stuck status change: ( stop state: 0 ) status change: ( quit ) My first problem is that dl.so 'sometimes' complains about 'RT_CONSISTENT' and makes vlc stop. I'm trying to figure out what goes wrong. But no real solution found yet.

Can you try rebuilding ffmpeg and vlc, if it's still reproducible? If it is, can you give me the output of scanelf -n /usr/lib/vlc/stream_out/libstream_out_switcher_plugin.so ? Thanks.
I need the above info to continue.
Cannot reproduce this again.
