Hi, Looks some stack overflow in playtree I guess (already reported a few months ago). The playtree code does not seem most obvious to me so if anyone more fluent with it could check this... I don't have the exact project name underhand but the mplayer mozilla plugin folks should add some URL length check if not already done. The tests are done on a K7 and IIRC there was some report that they did not crash on PPC. *With 0.90-cvs: mplayer `perl -e 'print "A"x99999'` segfaults #0 0x400a809b in FT_Done_FreeType () from /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x400a809b in FT_Done_FreeType () from /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 #1 0x080b5500 in done_freetype () at font_load_ft.c:1104 #2 0x0808583b in main (argc=2, argv=0xbffe7244) at mplayer.c:3387 mplayer `perl -e 'print "A"x9999'` is OK *With main-cvs: mplayer `perl -e 'print "A"x99999'` segfaults (gdb) bt #0 0x0809e647 in m_config_pop (config=0x41414141) at m_config.c:99 #1 0x080923c9 in play_tree_iter_step (iter=0x84297a8, d=1, with_nodes=0) at playtree.c:558 #2 0x0808717c in main (argc=2, argv=0xbffe7244) at mplayer.c:3457 mplayer `perl -e 'print "A"x9999'` segfaults #0 free_str_list (dst=0x8421a30) at m_option.c:396 396 for(i = 0 ; d[i] != NULL ; i++) (gdb) bt #0 free_str_list (dst=0x8421a30) at m_option.c:396 #1 0x080a0209 in copy_str_list (opt=0x83162a0, dst=0x8421a30, src=0x8421a30) at m_option.c:574 #2 0x0809e713 in m_config_pop (config=0x84247c0) at m_option.h:236 #3 0x080923c9 in play_tree_iter_step (iter=0x842bec0, d=1, with_nodes=0) at playtree.c:558 #4 0x0808717c in main (argc=2, argv=0xbfffd1d4) at mplayer.c:3457 Best regards, -- Pierre
