Good I'm glad to hear that!

I'm very unfamiliar with how to dig into the code so as a personal option
that's not too viable. I did make a decision to submit a bug report (
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5001). I looked at the ticket system and it
seems sometimes reports can go quite a while before they get any attention,
so I'm not sure I'll hold my breath on that resolution in the short term. I
don't know how to cut a file down, so I have a full file available for you
to look at.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/td2ac0obm0cxvtc/BigBa906%20-%20The%20Helium%20Insufficiency.mkv?dl=0

It is about 740MB, if you can provide instruction of how to cut a part of
it that would provide what you need I'm happy to do so, otherwise the full
file is available there for you.
