[vlc-devel] vlc locks up intermittantly

After some more testing I noticed that when using -vvv I get a debug message about adding to the playlist after I tried to play the video. This happens with either files from the disk or streaming videos. I am wondering if it is possible that there is a race condition in vlc when calling playlist.add() then playlist.play() in code. It seemed the error was less of a problem after I added some print statements between the add then play function calls.

    Hi All,
   
  I am testing running two child windows in jvlc bindings and I am seeing interesting error  condition where if I continously switch back and forth between child windows that are running videos (in java I have to get a new vlc instance because the switching between child windows causes the jre to destroy the window ie. peer to the canvas) I eventually get a condition where after executing playlist.play() several times the method does not seem to return and blocks the redraws of the screen.
   
  I get this interesting warning when playlist.play() is executed and never returns from the play method. I am using 0.9.0b from just before the names were changing to media-center?
   
  Thanks for any help. -Tony
