It is not Nux's repo that causes the crash. It is older versions of
ffmpeg (or ffmpeg-libs) that has the issue. You have linuxtech. Did
you install ffmpeg from there? If so, try installing the latest
version of ffmpeg (2.6.8-3.el6.nux) from nux-dextop. Note that the
packages are now in the main repo, not in the -testing repo.
