I didn't give up!  Although it might be a bit messy to talk about kaffeine-2 in
this bug, I think I found a solution to the qt4 problem here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1328466

"Running a Qt5 application using libvlc crashes that application, apparently
because of outdated/non-existing VLC cache (backtrace attached below).

Running "/usr/lib/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib/vlc/plugins/" as root fixes the
crash; apparently the Qt4 GUI is being loaded during introspection, causing a
symbol clash crash.

According Project Neon packagers, it's a bug in the VLC package as that command
should be run after installing to make sure the cache actually reflects what is
installed."

What I tried, after locating the proper files in
vlc-2.2.4-1plf-plf2014.1.x86_64 on ROSA Desktop Fresh R8 release 2014.1 for
x86_64 is

sudo /usr/lib64/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/

Right after that, the kaffeine-2.0.5 built from a git pull this morning
launched, I was able to configure it, and it's working for me, so far.  (The
same build segfaulted as previously before vlc built the cache.)

Still, if I have kaffeine tune and display an ATSC channel, htop reports it
uses more than 2 of 4 cores on the i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz (> 200% cpu across
several processes).  If I stop the playback, htop shows kaffeine relaxes to one
process at 100% and stays there for the few minutes I watched.  If I close
kaffeine and start it without opening Digital TV, it doesn't even show up on
the first page of htop.  Here, I'm only using to record, so I can workaround,
probably, but it doesn't seem healthy, overall, to me.

Thanks.
