Executable segmentation fault

[Luca737]

After a successful compilation and running moviemaker-cpp_test I got the following output:

[==========] Running 2 tests from 1 test suite.

I get the same errors and segmentation fault when I run the example code from the README.md and dynamically linking it against libmoviemaker-cpp.so.

I'm very new to Linux and c++ so forgive me if I'm missing something. I'm using ArcoLinux and the packages installed are:

• gcc 11.1.0-3
• cmake 3.22.2-1
• librsvg 2:2.52.5-1
• x264 3:0.163.r3060.5db6aa6-1
• gtk3 1:3.24.31-1
• gtkmm3 3.24.5-2

Hello, could you please make the following experiment: please comment out the line 51, recompile and run.

That worked! Thank you so much! I thought I searched all files for zerolatency...

Another question: Is the writing random pixels test supposed to take ~220 seconds? I also tried it with the example code getting similar times. When I wrote the png's to my SSD using LodePNG (taking ~18sec) and then used ffmpeg to create the mp4 (taking ~3sec) the total time was ~21 seconds. I just want to make sure that my setup is not to blame, since my Laptop has a few issues with Linux.

OK, zerolatency should actually be removed, because it belongs to H264 settings, not to VP9. That's why it complains. Furthermore, there is no null pointer check in the next lines, hence a segmentation fault. I need to address this.

Although this test is not really a speed test, different codec and quality settings affect the performance. The goal of this project is to produce small-sized videos from a lot of images.
