I was trying to deal with some odd behaviors on VLC on my Firestick 4k. All the mentioned bugs say they are fixed already, but when I check on my Firestick 4k they are not. That was when I finally noticed that VLC for Android is at version 3.5.3, but VLC for Fire is at version 3.4.3. I think this Fire version is from around January 2022.
How/when do new builds for Android get made and published for Amazon/Firesticks?
There are some important fixes in VLC 3.5.1 and later, but I can't get them due to the Fire version difference. Specifically, the fixed issue mentioned in the following thread.
No global settings for audio delay and subtitles
