 Thanks for that.
 

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  The world's highest paid software
engineers have to go begging to a FOSS project for assistance and
then expect immediate, high priority attention just because they
are Microslop.

 That's the real issue. There is nothing wrong i using FOSS for a big
company. But expecting high priority assistance for free is really
scandalous.

Why?  They allow the submitter to assign a priority.  If they don't want to address critical bugs first, they shouldn't allow you to assign an importance.
And you'll never guess who replied to the MS bug report and provided a fix.

(if that's really him.  I'd question him spending his time answering ffmpeg bug reports when he has big companies to run)
