Details

Something rather unusual happened the day before yesterday, VLC started playing an mp4 file which I normally play quite regularly as it is some music and there has never been any trouble like this before, but VLC just suddenly quit. I have played many other mp4s and the same one after this and no such occurrence has occurred again.

I have an up-to-date Arch system with VLC Media Player version 2.2.4-7 and I have attached the file with the log contents around that time including the core dump.
This task depends upon

If the error isn't ever reproducible, there's nothing much to debug
