Hi Edward,

You can also get previous log with the other option. Indeed, if you
start logcat from the log console, you'll get the previous logs and
you'll be able to debug if vlc had already crashed.

By the way, The UI of the debug console must be reworked (maybe add all
buttons into the action bar)
