Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.5.debian-2
Severity: normal

We are using VLC to multicast-stream a DVB-T signal as MPEG transport stream on 
our local network. When VLC is just started, "top" reports a resident memory 
consumption 270 MB. Eventually this value rises to around 850 MB, after which 
the computer begins to swap heavily, which causes a huge packet loss in the 
transport stream, and makes it impossible to view the stream.

The command used start vlc is: 
vlc -I dummy --ts-es-id-pid --ttl 4 --daemon --programs 101,102,217 
dvb-t:adapter=0:frequency=714000000:bandwidth=8 --dvb-caching=800 --sout 
"#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.1.1.91:1234},select="program=101",dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.1.1.92:1234},select="program=217",dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.1.1.93:1234},select="program=102"}"

As a workaround we restart VLC via a cron job.

        Hello,

This bug report was made against outdated and unsupported VLC versions, and is 
unreproducible by VLC developers. I have to assume it is resolved.

If you can reproduce the problem on Wheezy, please reopen and attach the 
verbose VLC logs (vlc -vv).

Best regards,
