[vlc-devel] Bugreport: Mac crash on headless machine

[Pierre d'Herbemont]

Hi George,

Thanks for your bug report. It's rather an hard one, as the crash  
occurs in an Apple Framework, and seems to be only indirectly  
triggered (related to chroma conversion).

Could you also paste the full vlc log when using -vvv?

Pierre.
