Description RJVB 2020-06-19 11:49:25 UTC 
Application: dragon (19.08.3)
 (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 5.9.8
Frameworks Version: 5.60.0
Operating System: Linux 4.14.23-ck1-mainline-core2-rjvb x86_64
Windowing system: X11
Distribution: Ubuntu 14.04.6 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

I quit Dragon5 with a video playing back. It crashed with the attached backtrace. I have not yet been able to reproduce the same situation (cf. the referenced old ticket) but it appears that the `m_player` member can be reset or a MediaObject instance created without initialising the m_player member.

The crash can be reproduced sometimes.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Dragon Player (dragon), signal: Aborted

Comment 1 Harald Sitter 2020-06-24 08:44:40 UTC 
That makes no sense. m_player is never set to 0
Comment 2 RJVB 2020-06-24 10:44:28 UTC 
It does look like a freak event, but you should never say never ;)

Frame 18 can only have happened if m_player was NULL, I see no other explanation.
