This video generator used as a camera: http://avobject.com/products/freeware_filters/video_generator.html causes VLC to crash.

It is interesting that VLC crashes with your component AV generator. I checked VLC with Video Generator. From log:

I have published alternative Camera Viewer and this viewer does not crash like VLC: https://ftsoft.com.cz/CamView/
