Yes, but so what? The bugtracker always focuses on the current development release. If you want to work on getting this fixed in an earlier release, like lucid, then I'd suggest to open a bugtask targeted at this release. However, I feel this particular issue is pretty minor, so this might not be worth the efford. > Unfortunately I lack the skills (about video formats) to spot > the problem in ffmpeg source code, and put this way, I can predict Lucid > will never see this bug fixed/backported.

Well, according to the current description of the bug, the current version fixes the symptoms. 'Fix Released' therefore seems appropriate. > Are we sure the problem is fixed and not only masked by some different > code path in ffmpeg 0.6?

However, all ffmpeg developers are volunteers, and we prefer to invest our time in a different way. > However these are only my 2 cents, the final decision is up to you. > Thanks anyway for your time and patience.
