One of the purpose of my Linux desktop is to play media files! Yes, I subscribe plenty video feeds on Miro. It will automatically download new video files and play directly on it.

Good day does not last long, out of sudden my Miro starts to crash every time it plays to the last video on the playlist. Then I ran my Miro using the terminal console and found out that the error shown was "Segmentation fault".

This is not an isolated case, I have seen a lot enquiries about such problem. None of the any reply from Miro team or fixes for this problem. Here is a solution for your problem.

Run Miro with the argument "–xine-driver=opengl %F"
$>miro –xine-driver=opengl %F

The main problem lies one the graphics driver, Miro is stable with OpenGL rather than the default xv driver.

If you have your Miro run on start up in Ubuntu, then

Go to System > Preferences > Sessions > Startup Programs tab

Edit Miro > "Command": miro –xine-driver=opengl %F

Anyway, Miro is still a good software, but just they really need more people to handle it and make it more stable.
