I think it has something to do with the ogg header.  I've passed the
file on to the gmerlin developer who is usually pretty quick about
fixing these things.    However, you will need to update your
gavl/gmerlin_avdecoder libs when he does fix it.

I just now fixed this bug.  I can't believe nobody saw this before.  If
you opened a file before turning DSP on, it would crash when your start
the DSP.   Simple fix.  Now done.  Thanks for reporting.

download from here: http://aug.ment.org/software/readanysf~0.41.tar.gz

It shouldn't be a problem.
