I ran into a crash this week which was caused by Windows linefeeds in
a .xpm file for a skin, using text2skin. From the backtrace (see below)
it looks like it's crashing in cBitmap::Set/LoadXpm() though.
This is a pretty much patched VDR 1.3.44 so the line numbers are
probably off wrt. vanilla. Oh, and text2skin is 1.1 from CVS.
Converting the linefeeds to unix ones in the *.xpm file fixed the
problem. (Yes, the troublemaker *.xpm has already been fixed in enElchi
0.7.1.)
By the way, I seem to remember that a number of apps and libraries have
recently got some xpm parsing related security updates, perhaps it would
be a good idea to review VDR's xpm loading routines against those fixes
just in case too unless someone's already done it recently...
