I am. > alternative is "wont fix" for all such cases, IMO it's not, in general, a bug, so EWONTFIX is the appropriate response. If the user does not want us to do arbitrarily large allocation, they have the appropriate OS-level mechanisms (e.g. ulimit, cgroups on Linux) or av_max_alloc(). -- Anton Khirnov _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
