JS Engine crashes randomly when starting

Describe your bug here. If you are modding, try testing your bug in a clean version of the engine instead. Also, if you're using an older version of JSE, please try the latest version/action build. Also, be sure to check the pinned 'JS Engine: Known Issues' issue, to check if your issue hasn't already been found!

When I open JS engine, it just crashes randomly. It happens sometimes, but it gets REALLY annoying.

Command Prompt/Terminal/Crash logs (if existing)

Uncaught Error: VLC caught an error!

Please report this error to the GitHub page: https://github.com/JordanSantiagoYT/FNF-JS-Engine
The engine has saved a crash log inside the crash folder, If you're making a GitHub issue you might want to send that!

disable the splash screen in the misc options

I think an better solution would be to update hxCodec since this is an hxCodec issue

[moxie-coder]

2.5.1 is far too outdated these days
