VLCJ not working on Mac - plugin libvlccore.5.dylib

I am trying to get VLCJ working on Mac and PC. It works fine under Windows 7 (64bit) but when I try to run it on my Mac it crashes. I am pointing to the correct directory for the VLC dylib files but I get an "...quit unexpectedly while using the libvlccore.5.dylib plugin" message. The details are:

Does anyone have any ideas please?

Solution

I bet you are using the libraries of VLC 2.0.4. I was experiencing the same problems and I downgraded to 2.0.3 version. It works fine now!
