Right, they probably already mitigated this bug in their own usage. Which is exactly why reporting the bug is a FAVOR to ffmpeg. Would you rather they just quietly fix it on their own and not report it to the maintainers?

I would rather they fix it and submit a patch like normal fucking people.

Indeed. A step so obvious it renders comments such as this:
moot.> Which is exactly why reporting the bug is a FAVOR to ffmpeg.
Not sure you have to SHOUT the obvious.

What do you suppose the answer to that question to be?
There's this weird "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation on social media where people try to help and get reamed for not doing enough. Taylor Swift donated $500k to charity and people complaining she didn't round up to a million. After all, she can afford it.
But she ends up getting more criticism than the billionaire who donates nothing. Seems unfair but I guess it's human nature.
