Hello,
after pacman -Syu current chromium 83.0.4103.106-1 experiences a sigsegv e.g on youtube. It seems to be caused by ffmpeg -1:4.3-1 Additional info: * package version(s) chromium 83.0.4103.106-1 ffmpeg -1:4.3-1 Steps to reproduce: pacman -Syu. in chromium, go to www.youtube.com, pick a video --> chromium goes to "Snap!" page with sigsegv message. Downgrading ffmpeg to 1:4.2.3-5 fixes the crash and video replay is possible again. |
This task depends upon

It's not really an ArchLinux issue unless maybe there are some new or changed compile flags needed to keep latest ffmpeg release working with Chromium? I've spent some time trying to find info on this from other distros and ffmpeg on github but no one seems to be having issues or run into this. its a Linux breaker for me :-(
Downgrading ffmpeg helped.

Rebuilding Chromium doesn't help, but reverting the above commit fixes it.
>This will be fixed when Chrome updates to FFmpeg 4.3 in M86.
>Distributions that are shipping Chromium using system libraries may apply the patch in #12 to work around the most severe issue, but note that Chromium is not (yet) compatible with FFmpeg 4.3 in other ways.
