libVLC and SDL2 freezes on resizing

[reactor-cores]

I followed this sample code on the VideoLAN website (https://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_SampleCode_SDL/) and got it to work with my personal video files. The issue I am having is that when resizing the window or when directly calling SDL_SetWindowSize, the video freezes (audio keeps playing). I searched around and there is atleast one other person with this issue 4 years ago. Has anyone come across this and is there a fix?

I am working with mingw64 on windows.
