Every open-source project is different.  At various points in time, I
have been responsible for two projects, on each of which we made a
point to answer bug reports.  (Doesn't mean we fixed them, but we did
acknowledge them.)  If it is the custom of the ffmpeg developers not
to acknowledge bug reports, it would be nice if this sentence were
added to the page at
http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/ffmpeg-bugreport.html:

  Because ffmpeg is developed and maintained by volunteers, for whom
  ffmpeg is not their primary activity, not all bug reports are
  acknowledged.
