Recently, @depthfirstlabs with AI found 21 security issues. Legit, credit where it's due, some of them were serious. Whilst disclosure is nice, and some fixes were even sent out, like with the Mythos-found issues, the best would have been to avoid having the issues altogether.

We're an open-source project consisting of volunteer programmers, comfortable with C, assembly, and Perl. Most of us still program by hand. It's hard to justify spending thousands a month on AI agents scanning. We've relied on support from Coverity or Google's OSS fuzz to help.

AI companies have open source initiatives. But critical infrastructure that doesn't fit the small-JS-lib-with-lots-of-GitHub-stars mold gets skipped. CC: @AnthropicAI @OpenAI @GoogleOSS your tools found real bugs in our code. Maybe help us fix the next ones before they happen?

FFmpeg is critical infrastructure for a lot of big companies. The security-report workload is rising fast. It would be nice if donations, sponsorships, and code contributions kept pace.

Any artists or designers in the FFmpeg community who would like to help out? We occasionally need artwork for social media, homepage news, and other community communication. It is volunteer/unpaid, help us fight ai-slop! Reply or mail art@ffmpeg.org

So far, only 2 people have mailed us The image that triggered this search was our rather bad server donation picture. So if you want to demonstrate your skills, a great sample would be a better image showing FFmpeg receiving a donated server.

The size difference between what random online "ICO converters" give you (15-370 KB) and what you get with a single @FFmpeg command (2.3 KB) is crazy! ffmpeg -i favicon-32.png favicon.ico Imagine all the disk space and traffic we're wasting because of them!

Ampere has clarified that the 2021/22 server was sent to VideoLAN. That server benefited the wider free software multimedia ecosystem. Ampere has also agreed to donate a server to SPI for use in FFmpeg CI. We thank Ampere for helping resolve this.

If you want to donate hardware or funds to FFmpeg as a project, please use FFmpeg’s official SPI path or contact FFmpeg/SPI directly. If you want to support an individual developer personally, that is separate from a donation to FFmpeg.

Kieran deleted the post about the Ampere server. This is incompatible with the purpose of this account. It also harms FFmpeg by obscuring the situation regarding FFmpeg’s CI on our git forge and the handling of donations. The delegation has therefore been revoked.
