[x264-devel] Help Required: Segmentation fault using x264enc

[Tejas Shah]

Hello,

Can anyone please help me? I sent my error using this email two weeks ago
but no one helped me?

I am trying to use x264enc on wandboard-dual and I am getting segmentation
fault error. I tried using x264enc on laptop (compiled one) and this works
but the cross-compiled is not working. Here is my error and with help from
freescale community I atleast know from where it is getting error but need
help resolving it.

t, or Ctrl-\ to dump core.

I ran gdb to find what is causing the error:

Basically it is the following line that is causing the problem for me:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=x264
.git;a=blob;f=encoder/slicetype.c;h=22b2e914df77b8ec4c0ef91345d99fed4222bcd2;hb=HEAD#l1297

Please help me. I really need to get it working.
