Hello. After upgrading Ubuntu to trusty, a simple video-load code became producing fatal memory error. The code is just opening an video file:
#include <opencv2/core/core.hpp>
#include <opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp>
int main(int argc, char**argv)
{
std::string path="sample/vout2l.avi";
cv::VideoCapture vin(path);
return 0;
}
Executing this causes a fatal memory error:
*** Error in `./cv2-videoread.out': free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x000000000217b590 ***
Abort (core dumped)
I compiled this code with OpenCV 2.4.8 and 2.4.13; both cases finished with the above error.
The backtrace by gdb was:

It seemed that the issue was caused by libavformat and/or libavutil, so I reinstalled them but it didn't work.
If you have any ideas to fix this issue or investigate more, please let me know. I'm struggling with this issue for these several months.
Many thanks.
