This means that libvlc_new failed; unfortunately, libvlc does not seem to have any logging in these functions. (In reply to Tobias Fella from comment #1) > This means that libvlc_new failed; unfortunately, libvlc does not seem to > have any logging in these functions. I found the source of the issue with some help with strace. libvlc requires vlc-plugin-base on Kubuntu 22.10. Installing Elisa will install the libvlc and libvlccore dependency, but it won't install the vlc-plugin-base dependency for libvlc which causes the crash at the start.

You should report that to the KUbuntu bug tracker Isn't that here? I ran into the same problem and resolved it by installing vlc-plugin-base. Kubuntu 23.04, Plasma 5.27.4, KDE Frameworks 5.104.0.
