Re: VLC+vaapi segfault after close

Does anybody know what's going on with this? On debian bug reports I saw this:

Hmm, yeah. libavcodec releases the VA buffers in avcodec_close() when it is
supposed to do that in the earlier avcodec_flush_buffers(). This causes a use-
after-free and crash in VLC.

It spams the journal and also causes VLC to pause after quitting every time.
