From 0.5 release notes ------------------------ - added decoding H.264 with NVIDIA VDPAU Requires FFmpeg built with vdpau. This is automatically detected and enabled. You can disable this by setting environment variable MLT_NO_VDPAU=1 or property novdpau=1. ------------------------- for major flexibility (and choice to the user) in my opinion could be useful add the vdpau use flag.
I don't see any reason for this, as it only needs vdpau.h which is always installed by ffmpeg regardless of USE flags being set.
my fault, i didn't check this deeply... anyway (maybe it's a false problem) but if someone has issues with VDPAU (provided by nvidia proprietary driver, that's the primary reason why i'm arguing..) can be a good thing be able to disable this feature.
