This bug is still present after all these years in VLC 3.0.20.
Easy to reproduce:
– Open a video m3u8 stream in VLC, for example a twitch stream
– force a disconnect behind the PC, for example just drop the connection on the router
– VLC will now “crash” with high chance and enter a buggy “stuck state”, not always, but with high chance. you cant close VLC anymore, systray icon is stuck, clicking exit in systray doesnt do anything
Only way to close VLC is force close the process via task manager or taskkill.
