[x264-devel] Crash on Mac Intel

[Felix Kühne]

Hello,

as probably all of you know, the VLC media player uses the x264  
library. This works finely on PowerPC-based Macs, but doesn't at all  
on the Intel-ones. Following the crash logs provided by our testers  
(regrettably, no VLC dev got a Intel-Mac yet), it appears to be x264  
which is crashing:

0   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x197349fc .. at 273.getgot + 7
1   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x196fdf02  
x264_slicetype_frame_cost + 402 (slicetype_decision.c:278)
2   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x196fe734 x264_rc_analyse_slice

3   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x19718f3f rate_estimate_qscale +

4   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x19716ac6 x264_ratecontrol_start

5   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x196cecdb x264_encoder_encode +

6   libx264_plugin.dylib           	0x196cab28 Encode + 136 (x264.c: 
1007)

Since I don't know much about x264's source, I would be really  
interested in feedback how to solve this, whether it is a known  
problem to the x264 devs, etc. Feel free to answer me on IRC as well.  
I'll join the x264's channels as "feepk" for the next couple of days.

Thanks,
Felix
