It happened again. Switched through the menu bar when a video was playing. vlc[6041]: segfault at 7f31e4001270 ip 00007f33e37515fb sp 00007f33d0117608 error 4 in libc-2.17.so[7f33e36c3000+19f000] Strange. Now it is libc. But I have vlc emerged again after my last report. I hope it is not hardware related.
Does this happen in the most recent versions as well or 9999 only?
(In reply to Tom Wijsman (TomWij) from comment #2) > Does this happen in the most recent versions as well or 9999 only? using vlc-2.1.2 since one week and tried to get the crash and there it is.

Haven't reproduced this so far; hmm, I'll need more information on the segfault. Can you try to capture the backtrace? Or has this since been resolved? See http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml for details.
I tried excessively to recreate the crash with latest vlc-9999 (now compiled with -g and splitdebug). Can't crash it. Maybe it is fixed. Could be related to the update to glibc-2.18 and its fixes. Did not have the crash since aprox. 1 month. ================================================================= Package Settings ================================================================= media-video/vlc-9999 was built with the following: USE="X a52 aalib alsa avcodec avformat bluray cdda cddb dbus dts dvb dvbpsi dvd egl encode faad ffmpeg flac fluidsynth fontconfig gcrypt gme gnutls jpeg kde libass libcaca libnotify libsamplerate live lua matroska mmx modplug mp3 mpeg mtp musepack ncurses ogg opengl png postproc projectm pulseaudio qt4 rtsp samba schroedinger sdl sftp shout skins speex sse svg swscale taglib theora truetype twolame udev v4l vaapi vcdx vdpau vlm vnc vorbis vpx x264 xcb xml xv (-altivec) -atmo (-audioqueue) -avahi -bidi -chromaprint -dc1394 -debug -directfb (-directx) (-dxva2) -fdk -gnome -growl -httpd -ieee1394 (-ios-vout) -jack -kate -libtar -libtiger -linsys -lirc (-macosx) (-macosx-audio) (-macosx-dialog-provider) (-macosx-eyetv) (-macosx-qtkit) (-macosx-quartztext) (-macosx-vout) (-media-library) (-neon) -omxil -opencv -optimisememory -opus (-qt5) -rdp -run-as-root -sdl-image -sid -test -tremor -upnp -wma-fixed -zvbi" CFLAGS="-march=native -g" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -L/usr/lib64/sidplay/builders/"
Could be possible due to glibc; the first line you have pasted doesn't seem to indicate that, however, the second does. If this happens again, let us know... :)
