 I get this segfault repeatedly watching ATSC or NTSC live tv, and enabling
 PiP.
 Sorry for partial backtrace (attached), this is all I can get on Windows.

 Closer examination shows this:
 (gdb) return
 Make selected stack frame return now? (y or n) y
 #0  VideoOutputNull::UpdatePauseFrame (this=0x342e8ab0)
     at videoout_null.cpp:177
 177     }
 (gdb) info locals
 pauseb = (VideoFrame *) 0x2f41cfc0
 pauseu = (VideoFrame *) 0x0
 (gdb) print pauseb
 $1 = (VideoFrame *) 0x2f41cfc0
 (gdb) print pauseb->buf
 $2 = (unsigned char *) 0x0

 which means that
 memcpy(pauseFrame.buf, pauseb->buf, pauseb->size);
 was called with null pointer.

 Output of -v playback is below (several times). Apparently
 UpdatePauseFrame is called while vbuffers.Init is still running.
