Well the specified video is just an example and it doesn't always fail.
Sometimes you can play a stream for an hour witjout a glitch, sometimes
after just a couple of minutes you observe the issue. Just one 10
minutes test does not prove nothing.
Yes there is a bug in VLC, and I explained what the bug is: that when
there is a failure playing the stream, it does not retry to ensure
robustness. The fact that you cannot reproduce a failure does not mean
that the bug is not there: to say the bug is invalid you should observe
that where there _is_ a streaming issue VLC resumes gracefully.
Also, note the doesn't-remember-playhead-position issue, which is very
clear and plainly wrong.
I don't understand your closing the bug just because the reporter
doesn't provide a patch. I am not a developer. If bugs were to be
reported only when someone was able to provide a fix, then bug trackers
wouldn't need to exist.
Please close this when you really observe that the issue is invalid, or
when it is fixed (or if you find out it is a duplicate or whatever), but
closing it because it is _not_ fixed or because you cannot even
reproduce the situation where the issue can be observed or not observe,
does not make much sense
