Oh come on. The parent is basically telling us what we should do and how we should do it. Maybe he's more skilled than us, maybe he has the time to fix, then a patch would be welcome.
VLC is a very small team, with around 10 developers, that maintain an open source B2C project, for free, on more platforms than so many (including huge teams or professional) projects, for > 10 years... Maybe, just maybe, we know how to evaluate the cost of a fix.
Amazon is being unrealistic by asking us to do a full migration of custom playlists, an option very seldomly used on Android TV (it's very hard to do in the UI of version they blocked us on, a contrario from the version we want to upgrade to), which we could not fix quickly without making sqlite crash.
But the point is: yes, there is a bug and we will get a bad vote from the people who rely on this. Sure. But that means that 99,9% of the millions of users will keep having the rest of the bugs, and there are a ton.
