Hi,

If you are using x86-64 Fedora 7 or 8, or x86-64 RHEL/CentOS 5 and have 
been experiencing intermittent crashes with VIC, I would recommend 
issuing the following to update to the latest version:

    yum update vic

the update fixes a 64bit pointer arithmetic issue with the H.261 codec
and buffer index overruns with MPEG-4/H.264, both of which used to
result in segmentation faults.



Doug
