I hope tux99 sees and can fulfil this request.
![]() In SL-6, older versions of ffmpeg cause segfault in firefox 45 that was released recently. This can be fixed by updating the package to the latest version. In the nux-dextop repo, version 2.6.8-3.el6 was provided and that was confirmed to work. Wonder if you could please update ffmpeg and its deps in your LinuxTECH repo. -------------------- ELRepo: repository specializing in hardware support for EL

I will look into it, I guess it should be doable, I had planned a major update of the whole multimedia stack anyway, but haven't gotten round to it yet.

Just adding my comment that I was recently wondering why I had both java-1.6.0-openjdk and java-1.8.0-openjdk installed on my EL6 system . . .
Then I realised that it was the libbluray package from the LinuxTECH repository that required the java-1.6.0-openjdk package. ![]()
And the ffmpeg, mencoder and mplayer packages depend on the libbluray package. -------------------- ![]() |

Can you please post a link to a page where you experience a segfault caused by ffmpeg, so that I can check that any new ffmpeg package I build solves it?

Redhat explicitly allows various major versions of Java to be installed in parallel because some applications require specific major Java versions. I will have to check whether libbluray works with Java 8 (I guess it will, but it still needs checking before I change the dependency) so this is not a bug. ![]() This post has been edited by tux99: May 12 2016, 06:54 PM -------------------- My personal SL6 repository, specialized in audio/video software: http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/

You're surely not trying to tell a grumpy old black cat how to lick his saucer of cream?
![]() Of course I am aware of the parallel mode of installation for certain packages (for some reason kernel-lt or kernel-ml come to mind) and I wouldn't dream of suggesting that the libbluray package's usage of java-1.6.0-openjdk is a bug! No, it was just that when I saw you mention the possibility of rebuilding the entire multimedia stack I thought it would be worthwhile mentioning . . . If the java-1.8.0-openjdk package could be used, good, otherwise no problems. ![]() -------------------- ![]() |

A Scientifix user reported the segfault in this post/thread. I myself had the same issue. In my case I had ffmpeg from Nux's repo. It was reported in this thread. -------------------- ELRepo: repository specializing in hardware support for EL

tux99, sorry I misread your post.
![]() Here's the link that surely causes the crash: https://twitter.com/motcho_tw/status/724960561302102016 (it's the official emblem of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics) You'd need to play it. -------------------- ELRepo: repository specializing in hardware support for EL

Thanks for those links. I went through both threads and found the following links mentioned that would cause Firefox 45.1 to crash: https://twitter.com/motcho_tw/status/724960561302102016 http://dl.nux.ro/video/Organshiftpregnancy.mp4 http://www.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/free-association-podcast-much-toronto-raptors-fear-miami-heats-dwayne-wade-hassan-whiteside-joe-johnson/ The strange thing is the videos in those links all work fine on my fully up-to-date SL box with my Linuxtech multimedia packages, all videos play without problems. ![]() So to me it doesn't look like my repo is affected by this problem. I noticed the Nux repo had ffmpeg 0.10.4 which was causing problems, while my repo has 1.1.5 which is quite a bit newer. Can anybody here who uses my Linuxtech repo (and not the Nux repo) check whether in those links above the videos work fine like they do for me?

What repo do you use for ffmpeg, Nux, Linuxtech, or some other? Can you please post the output of: rpm -qa|grep ffmpeg -------------------- My personal SL6 repository, specialized in audio/video software: http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/

I now see that the the SL reporter's ffmpeg is 0.10.11. So, the right advice would have been to update it to the latest within your LinuxTECH repo. I will add a followup post. -------------------- ELRepo: repository specializing in hardware support for EL

ffmpeg 0.10.11 is probably from he rpmfusion repo, there never was such a version in the Linuxtech repo. The only versions ever available from the Linuxtech repo were: ffmpeg-0.6.3 ffmpeg-0.6.5 ffmpeg-0.6.6 ffmpeg-1.1.5 -------------------- My personal SL6 repository, specialized in audio/video software: http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/

I had to look at the original SL post once again. It was gstreamer-ffmpeg 0.10.11, not ffmpeg.
![]() Name : gstreamer-ffmpeg Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.10.11 Vendor: LinuxTECH.NET Release : 5.el6 Build Date: Tue 07 Jun 2011 07:36:55 AM EDT -------------------- ELRepo: repository specializing in hardware support for EL

I had a quick read around and as far as I understand it Firefox uses ffmpeg directly if available on the system, gstreamer seems to be the last resort fallback. (see here for example: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1207429 ) So assuming the poster doesn't have a mix of packages from various repos (which as we all know can cause all sorts of issues) but indeed only has multimedia packages from the Linuxtech repo, then he needs to check whether he has ffmpeg installed, and if not then he should install the latest available version from the Linuxtech repo which is 1.1.5 and which seems to work fine with Firefox 45.1, at least according to my own tests. If this doesn't solve his problem then it would be best if he posts in this thread here so I can help debug his issue.
