Lua extensions: playback start/stop locks up VLC
If I try to start or stop media playback when an extension is busy doing something, VLC v1.2.0-git-20110713 always crashes.
Within the first 10 seconds of loading the attached extension, try to start or stop playing any media and VLC will lock up.
No backtrace is available, since VLC doesn't actually crash. It seems like some VLC function is stuck in an infinite loop somewhere.
If you wait until after 10 seconds before starting or stopping media playback next time, you'll notice that VLC doesn't crash.
This is quite a significant problem, as users of extensions will sometimes decide to start/stop playback when an extension is busy.
