Comment 5 jospezial 2014-03-03 18:21:10 UTC
vlc-9999 compiles with ffmpeg-9999 without problems.
Comment 6 jospezial 2014-03-03 20:47:36 UTC
vlc-9999 does not compile with ffmpeg-2.1.4 (ebuild copied from 2.1.3). Same output as in #c4

It compiles with ffmpeg-2.2_rc1 (ebuild copied from 2.1.3)

So the needed fix in ffmpeg was somewhere beetween.
