[theora-dev] Thusnelda - Floating point exception in encoder_toplevel.c:209

[Philip Heron]

Hi all,

  I've been hitting the odd floating point exception errors using the 
new alpha encoders. They're encoding a live stream so I can't reproduce 
the crash on demand, and it might only happen once every few days so 
it's been fun trying to get a backtrace. The crash happens in a fairly 
scary block of code, I wouldn't have a clue where to begin trying to fix it!

Here's what gdb has to say about it:

Any ideas?
