P: Crashes every time I click on a video

So interesting what Oliver and Tom discovered about playing the videos. But I haven't tried it anymore.

Yesterday I had all the catalog data (LR version 14.0.1) written to xmp (to be on the safe side), uninstalled LR and downloaded version 13.5.1. 

In case you are interested in how I solved the problem for myself: 

Luckily I was out of town for 4 weeks and didn't have my external hard drive with the masters on it. All my masters were temporarily in an extra folder on my computer. But the pictures were in a sophisticated folder structure in a catalog with 30,000 photos, which crashed several times when I upgraded to 14.0.1 and then didn't work.

As expected, I could not open the said catalog in 14.0.1 with the 13.5.1 program. So I opened a new catalog in 13.5.1 and tried to import the photos from the 14.0.1 catalog. That was not possible either. So I had to re-import the masters - I took the opportunity to move them from my computer to the external SSD. The folder structure, which I had put a lot of effort into in this case, is of course lost. However, all keywords are actually also available in 13.5.1. After all. What luck! 

I am throwing away the catalog I had updated to 14.0.1. I have now opened the last backup before the upgrade and crash (I actually make a backup every time I close LR, delete them months later and put the last backups before an upgrade in a “Before upgrade to…” folder) and will now import the new catalog with the travel photos into it.

Such an effort (time-wise and mental).

The greatest luck is that I only updated one of my smaller catalogs at all, I hadn't touched the others until today. They are now simply running on 13.5.1 again. 

By the way: I won't be updating any more. For sure.

It's not the first time I've had problems (and was told that I'm unlucky and that this or that problem only happens in one in 10,000 cases). And yes, it's been over a month now ...

Same problem here, but I was told I was the only one when I reported it here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/crash-when-selecting-video-files-lightroom-classic/td-p/14944201

I'll note that this does not happen in Lightroom Classic 13, but of course you can't downgrade a catalogue once it's been upgraded to 14, so this means a loss of what might be a lot of work. It's been over a month now, when's the fix coming, Adobe?

I tested out what Oliver wrote, and it's exactly the same for me. The horizontals work when I move into Loupe view, the verticals make it crash. I can only see verticals by clicking around inside Loupe view via the icons at the bottom of the program.

I'm seeing this too, crashing when opening video files in Loupe View in v14.01.

However, what I have discovered is that it seems to be related to video orientation. If I go into Loupe View on a video which is horizonal then it opens OK, and any other video I click on after that also displays and plays OK, regardless of orientation. However, if I go into Loupe View on a video which is vertical, then LrC crashes. Even if I've previously been into Loupe View starting with a horizontal video, and then played a vertical video whilst still in Loupe View, if I come out and then try to go back in on the same vertical video it'll cause a crash. I hope that makes sense!

The crash reports I've been submitting should all have my account email associated with them if needed.

I also have the same problem

I am also experiencing the same issue

Thanks a lot !! I hope that the problem can be solved.
