Hi All,

Heads up: if you read a zero length *.mp4 file with VLC, the error
windows will pop up, start to shimmer, eventually kill VLC,
and you will get Logged out -- losing everything you had open.
You can log back in, but nothing seems to work quite right until
you reboot.

I am not reporting it to VLC as they act like such jerks
when you do.

Also reproduces if your network connection is down and you want
run something from the web.  Doesn't crash Xfce though.

You said "VLC 5.0.3".


$ rpm -qa vlc
vlc-3.0.5-4.fc29.x86_64

You said "VLC 5.0.3".

[root@f29b-xfce ~]# rpm -q vlc
vlc-3.0.5-4.fc29.x86_64

And updates-testing only has 3.0.5-10.  Thus my question.

I suppose I should have checked the https://www.videolan.org/vlc/ site first.  
They have
only 3.0.5 as the most recent version.

Yes, Xfce 4.13 in a fully updated F29 VM.
