celluloid: ../stream/stream.c:416: stream_create_with_args: Assertion `args->url' failed. about celluloid HOT 8 CLOSED

Starting celluloid using the command celluloid --mpv-mpv-config-file=/home/jberli/.mpv/config with the same config file still crashed celluloid with:

I was referring to the GSettings key. You can set the key with gsettings set io.github.celluloid-player.Celluloid mpv-config-file 'file:///home/jberli/.config/celluloid/configuration/celluloid.conf'.

Is this the expected behavior? Is this fix temporary or definitive?

No. This is just a workaround. I'll fix it properly.

I have the same problem with celluloid in Arch Linux:

$ celluloid
celluloid: ../mpv/stream/stream.c:416: stream_create_with_args: Assertion `args->url' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

celluloid version: 0.25
mpv version: 0.36 (2023-07-24)

@breunigs Thank you for the very detailed bug report. Is Celluloid able to start if you change mpv-config-file to file:///home/stefan/.mpv/config?

from celluloid.

I have the exact same crash on Debian testing, with celluloid 0.25 and mpv 0.36.0. It also happened right after the upgrade.

I have my celluloid configuration file place here ~/.config/celluloid/configuration/celluloid.conf and provided the location inside celluloid when it used to work.

Here is the content of the celluloid.conf file:

hwdec=yes
sub-pos=95
sub-font='Ubuntu'
sub-font-size=40
sub-border-size=2

Celluloid does work when changing the mpv-config-file key with gsettings. Thanks for your solution.

Until I deleted my question, I didn't even think that this would be the problem and should insert this patch for @Debian. I thought it was a hardware problem, but it has nothing to do and it doesn't happen here.

This has been fixed in Debian, thanks!
