MainMenu.nib loading crashes when using ./clivlc

When using a command line such as ./clivlc /Users/fpk/Desktop/Clips/miami_vice-tsr1_h640w.mov --sout "#std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=172.16.0.238}" or similar, we get Apple's nib-loading code to crash within the lines 110 and 111 in intf.m.

A backtrace is available here and a cmd-line log there.

Not all kinds of commands are affected. clivlc --help works, but as soon as we're trying to play something, we're done.

Reported by VAleks on IRC, reproducible here.

added Component::Interface: macOS Severity::critical Type::bug Version::master git labels

changed milestone to %0.8.5-test3

You need to use --extraintf=dummy or something else that is NOT the macosx interface for clivlc. This is described in the README.MacOSX.rtf

I would like to fix this, but unfortunately it's not that easy. I don't really feel like detecting wether "macosx" is the primary intf and in such and such occasion select a dummy intf or anything.

added Severity::normal label and removed Severity::critical label

changed milestone to %0.8.5-final

changed milestone to %Bugs paradize

workaround for current stable: use -I dummy (also, the readme file does not mention anything related to this problem)

will no longer crash now, but requires more work to solve nicely

changed milestone to %0.9.0 bugs

This one is a invalid to me. We shouldn't need the clivlc. and use VLC directly.

added Status::invalid label
