12.2 VLC crashes when attemping to open any video file. Segmentation fault

Hello, everyone!
I tried VLC of official & packman repo builds, but anyway, when I’m trying to play any video file, I’m getting “Segmentation fault”

I have also installed the latest NVIDIA driver updates.
I’m kinda new to *nix systems so any help is much appreciated!

ok. I’ve got it.
I should have been installed proprietary multimedia packages first. Now it works fine.
This thread can be removed. Thanks, anyway

Did you install the other codecs as described in the multimedia sticky? Did it work before? The way I see it is that VLC is missing some info in order to load the movie for you. Did it work before? Give some answers and someone could help you hopefully. Too late the reply. As someone said, if you wait long enough some users will find a solution by themselves. good job and good luck!

VLC repository and packman are not compatible with each other.
It is best to keep packman alone.
