Microsoft Requested Urgent support on a bug from FFmpeg.
- alberth 2y agoJust because someone asks you to do something (who you have no obligation to help), doesn’t mean you must help. And if FFmpeg was so passionate to get a support contract from Microsoft, that should have been a requirement first before they provided the support. Once again, FFmpeg set their own rules. First with free software and now with free support. Life lesson: Don’t provide free software and free support, and then complain about your own doing.
- supriyo-biswas 2y agoThey can simply force all users to file bugs with technical details OR get a support contract for general questions and troubleshooting, which would be the best way of forcing companies into contracts.
- kierank 2y ago(author of the post on X) We cannot tell volunteers to not do something (i.e help Microsoft) in the same way we cannot tell volunteers to do something.
- Zetobal 2y agoIt wasn't even a bug... they forgot to read the changelog.
- ahahahahah 2y ago[flagged]
- Zetobal 2y agoThey changed how a feature works and they communicated it via changelog I don't know what they should have done more. They have no service contract with ms.
- ahahahahah 2y agoI love how you just continue the lie. I linked to the changelog. Feel free to quote from there where "they communicated it via changelog". That's not even getting into how it's a shitty argument anyway, especially with as shitty of a changelog as ffmpeg has.
