The second window, the video window, has as its window title: VLC (hardware YUV SDL output) My desktop environment is KDE 4. When doing the emerge world, I got a segmentation fault during the build. Some googling revealed the following forum topic: http://tinyurl.com/lgo9r7x I read the comment from alex46 @ 8:36pm, 14/6/2013 and rebuilt VLC with those USE flags. That is when the problem appeared. Silly me, I didn't notice that this was a two page topic and I had only read the first page. I'm now going to follow the steps from the second page and see what happens.. Andrew

It's seemingly related to glib event loop and plasma in some wonderful way that I haven't bothered figuring out yet. i.o.w. with current versions you may still not get it to build. Try downgrading a few versions. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
