Default Video playback quit working in 5.986

I upgraded to 5.986 this morning and the video in my current project quit working (black screen). I installed 5.985, and it works fine again.

This is the 64bit MacOS build of Reaper, running on MacOS 10.14.6. My video engine preferences are:
ffmpeg avfoundation vlc qt

The video, in question, is an mov encoded with the ProResLt codec.

I'm running an ancient version of 3.2.4 of ffmpeg, so maybe that's the problem. Also, VLC is extremely out of date on my system. In any case, rolling back the Reaper update fixed the problem, so I didn't troubleshoot further.

This isn't blocking me at the moment. I just reported the bug, in case it's helpful. I'm happy to troubleshoot more, if it's helpful. Just let me know.
