Hi,

Which backend are you using ?
Gmerlin use to crash without further notice when trying to load unsupported
files.
There is a mpv external that allow you to play lots of video format
(including hap with alpha channel).
It might be in deken or here https://gitlab.com/antoine.villeret/pd-mpv

Kind regards

Antoine
