Then something needs to be fixed. Removing the assert is not a fix. It
might be worse than a fix: turning a crash into a silent corruption of
data or exploitable security issue.

(Reminder: in terms of badness, crash < silent corruption < security.)

av_assert2() is no more and no less for debugging than av_assert0(), the
only difference is that av_assert2() is meant for cases where the
assertion is expensive in a speed-critical part of the code and disabled
for normal users.

Developers should always use --assert-level=2.

Of course not. You need to fix the bug. I do not know the technicals of
this instance, but the first version of this patch looks like it could
be the proper fix fix. The second version is not a fix at all, no need
to know the technicals to know it.
