Please see attached log file and MediaInfo output.
To reproduce, I just have to:
Run avidemux.
Open a_video.avi.
Click 'yes' when asked whether I want it to unpack the detected packed bitstream.
Notes on the log file:
I removed over 60,000 repeated lines, as noted at lines 223 and 239.
Contrary to line 136, my screen is 1280x1024, and I'm not doing anything unusual (that might obscure that from ADM?).
Contrary to line 391, it never consumed 3036 MB of memory. (Should that say KB?)
Any help would be appreciated!
Though it's in the log, I forgot to say I'm using version 2.5.6.

it says below:
QuoteMemory consumed: 3 (MB)
Goodbye...
Or the decimal point is missing ;)
Most likely switching to avidemux 2.6 experimental, could solve the issue.
Downloads for Windows (http://avidemux.razorbyte.com.au/), Windows and other OS (http://avidemux.org/nightly/)
Ubuntu amd64: 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot (http://www.avidemux.org/smf/index.php?topic=10059.0), 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin (http://www.avidemux.org/smf/index.php?topic=10584.0)
If issue not solved:
Can you upload a small sample of video (5 seconds/ max 20 MB) causing this behavior? To rapidshare (non pro is non paying) (https://www.rapidshare.com/) or similar service and provide a link to it.
Thanks for your reply.
I've just tried it in 2.6.0 build 8121. I no longer get a "crash" message; the (avidemux.exe) process just silently ends. :P
Since posting I discovered that the file wasn't completely downloaded. Much of its (preallocated) extent was garbage. But it would be nice (and standard) for avidemux to detect garbage (or a condition it couldn't handle, anyway--if compressed video can't reliably be discerned from garbage) and complain instead of crashing, right? ;)
Regarding submitting a sample:
Using DGSplit, I've tried chunk sizes 5-30 MB (in 5-MB increments) and 100 MB, but none of them lead to the same behavior when opened. Avidemux just says the attempt to open each file failed. For some reason, they all contain 10 seconds of video according to Media Player Classic. Any idea why that would be?

What OS, 32 or 64 bit version and from where did you download 2.6.0 build 8121? Could you find a log file? Info here: Bug tracking (http://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/doku.php?id=general:bugtracker)

maybe this has something to do with: Torrent poisoning is the act of intentionally sharing corrupt data or data with misleading file names using the BitTorrent protocol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrent_poisoning)

I'm using 32-bit Windows XP with SP3. I used this (http://sourceforge.net/projects/avidemux-mswin/files/beta/2.6/8121/avidemux_2.6_r8121_win32.exe) installer. The log file is attached. It looks pretty similar except for the way it ends.

In this case I simply hadn't let the download complete. Because of pre-allocation, the file size didn't serve as any reminder that it wasn't complete. After resuming and completing the download, it played fine (and both versions of Avidemux unpack it without incident). I happened to make a copy of the file as it was when I originally posted, so I can still provide that.
Guess developer will have a look at it. So 2.6.0 build 8121 works, and does only the odd exit will processing that kind of video? Otherwise it runs fine?
I'm afraid I can't say much along the lines of what works. I haven't tried to do anything with 2.6.0 other than load that corrupt file.
