I use digital audio (SP/DIF passthrough). There might be sound drivers loaded. I use the normal archlinux kernel (4.0.7-2-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT). It IS due to a single file: wireshark_usb.pcapng.gz is a 349.3 MiB gzip archive that when present causes vlc to crash. I'll look into how to make a b

I suggest you report a bug, I'll work on looking through that core dump to see if there is any security ramifications. Also, I'll grab that version when I get back home on Monday and see if I can replicate this issue. Do you have any weird kernel modifications or sound drivers? Also do you have any

Storm Dragon, Looks like you are just missing whichever component of the plugin that contains iir. I'd try and re download then rebuild the plugin. If they offer a hash of it you may want to check it against whatever archive you downloaded before reinstalling. If none of that works then I recommen

First of all, thank you for such a quick reply. Now, I don't want to preach. But I will not pretend I chose Arch Linux at random. I chose it for many reasons, an important one of them being that I liked the Arch Way, it made sense to me, and it seemed you were following it. Now it seems to belong
