[Cin] Crash on playback

That is consistent with what you have always said -- crash only happens
when you build it yourself.

It seems it will only do vdpau with X11, not X11 Opengl. With X11 Opengl,

I saw no difference between using X11 and X11-OpenGL in my tests with
tutorial,mp4 using vdpau (my graphics board can not handle DSCF0220.MOV in
either vaapi or vdpau).  I think I have some more work to do to understand
what is going on because when I run the build binary, tutorial.mp4 works in
both vdpau and vaapi BUT the AppImage only works in vdpau.

How close is the test AppImage to what you need to accomplish what you
want? if I can not get any better results?
Logging off the computers for today!
