 Replying to [comment:10 mario66]:
 > This is why open source always fails because the glorified people who
 work in their spare time for this project just do things that make fun not
 things that are actually necessary.
 > Only if people get payed to fix bugs there is a chance that the project
 will become usable. That's the sad truth.
 You're chastising people for doing something fun and interesting in what
 you acknowledged is their spare time, and not what you think should be
 done instead. I hope you realize how absurd and entitled that sounds.

 > Libav was so right. It had much better developers with a much better
 mindset, too bad it was abandoned.
 Adding color information to the filter chain during format negotiation in
 encoding scenarios is a huge change that no one capable of implementing
 has felt like doing. And that includes every developer from ffmpeg and
 libav for the better part of the past two decades.


 This is a bug tracker, not a discussion forum. Stick to technical reports
 here, and criticize development elsewhere.
