Hi Christopher and Kevin,

I was able to reproduce this issue with FXMediaPlayer and MP3 file when playing via JRT protocol on macOS 26.1 aarch64. Not sure if it is reproducible on x64.

Christopher, do you want to file a bug report for it? Or I can file it myself.

Thanks,
Alexander

I was able to play that media file with no problem on macOS 26.1 using
the tests/manual/media/FXMediaPlayer app in the FX repo. I didn't try
with your application.

I can see from the hs_err log you attached, that it is crashing in our
libjfxmedia_avf library in a callback from CoreFoundation.

I was running JDK 25.0.1 and I tried the latest mainline JavaFX (26 ea)
as well as JavaFX 25.0.1. Can you confirm the exact versions of JDK 25
and JavaFX 25 you were running?
