Ambpdb will only work with restart or inpcrd files. It does not work with
trajectory files. If you want to extract specific frames (or all frames)
from an mdcrd file as pdb's then use ptraj. However, it is very rare that
you would want to do this since handling a single mdcrd file (for use in VMD
or analysing in ptraj) is much easier than several thousand pdb files.

I suspect that this is an unpatched version of ambpdb. The ambpdb that
shipped with Amber 8 was a static memory version and so would crash with
large systems. Apply bugfix.29 (see amber.scripps.edu/bugfixes80.html), make
clean, recompile and then try it.
Alternatively if all you want to do is visualise the structure the latest
version of VMD (v1.8.3) can now read both trajectory (mdcrd - select crd or
crdbox) and restart (select rst7) files. See
http://www.rosswalker.co.uk/tutorials/amber_workshop/Tutorial_nine/ for
examples.
All the best
Ross
