Same here (current ArchLinux x64):

[Teteros]

Haven't had any luck running the releases on Arch Linux either, but it does run on when you build it manually.

Steps to do so in shell with comments for each step:

sudo pacman -Syu; sudo pacman -S --needed git electron npm # Updates packages and installs git, electron and node with its package manager if missing.
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut lossless-cut && cd $_ # Shallow Clones the sources and changes to cloned directory
npm install # Downloads project's dependencies
npm run build # Builds sources into the dist folder
electron dist # Runs the app

At time of writing node --version on Arch is v10.8.0 and electron --version is v2.0.7

EDIT: I realised this exists on AUR so you might just prefer to use that PKGBUILD instead of manually building.

[jose1711]

note the PKGBUILD packages the precompiled version. anyway, the issue went away - recent ffmpeg update (or one of its components) is probably to "blame". as it works for me and also for the original reporter on the AUR page i am closing it. thanks.

getting the same segfault on fedora 29
it does run like @Teteros described manually
it does NOT run like described in the README.md file (npm run watch + npm start)

[mifi]

is this with the newest version of losslesscut?
i don't understand why it should segfault when running npm start, because it just runs electron dist

[mailinglists35]

yes, with latest released version
