Thanks for the report but it would be helpful if you add a blend-file to the report that demonstrates the issue at hand.

Yes, that's the setup that crashes Blender.
It was mentioned from another user I just replicated it on my machine.

There is no need of blend file.
The steps are clear and simple to do. Joel Godin posted picture with the correct node setup.
Interestingly he seems not to have any issues.
Maybe it's video card thing? I think the culprit could be the Backdrop option when it's on.

Please try with a build from builder.blender.org/download

Actually next time yes please include a blend file as it took probably 20 minutes to reproduce that set up as I wasn't sure which renderer
was used, and where the nodes were.
An attached Blend would have been quicker.

Tried with latest build
blender-2.78-420d4a7-win64

Blender doesn't crash, but the Backdrop disappears.

Decided to play with the texture node before plugging it into Scale offset

If I plug Normalize Value to X offset of the scale node, Blender doesn't crash but there is no Backdrop image (or trasparent image in the Viewer Node).
If I connect Add node and adding value of 0.3 the Backdrop appears and I see an image (see the screen shot 1)

Value of 0.2492 works too but below that it's getting ugly.
Setting Add value to 0.2 produces artifacts in the image (see the screen shot 2)

Can someone explain this behavior?

I see that too, and all I have to do is go Converter > Math and it renders corrupted. Even before I hook it up.
Title maybe should be changed to "....cause corrupted backdrop image"

This is after hooking it up:

The title is based on initial observations.
It is definitely a bug so I will leave it to developers to figure it out.

I have found that the builds after June 4th address the texture to scale distortion bug.

However if I place a Directional Blur Node OR a Sunbeam Node before the scale node, Blender crashes. I am not sure if it is related or the same bug?

Since the crash and scale issues are solved, closing this report.

If you still have issues with texture nodes, please open separate bug report, including:

Exact .blend file which crashes (just do it, doesn't take much time for you to upload file, saves lots of troubleshooting time which often ends up in some option which seems unrelated being different).
Exact Blender version used to test the bug.

Additionally, test the bug with 2.79 and latest builds from builder.blender.org, there are threading issues solved every so often.

It doesn't work for me on the official release of 2.79
I suppose I have to open new bug report.
