Description CaptainBlood 2023-01-10 23:21:13 UTC
kodi live seems to currently require ffmpeg-5.x by default.
A patch revert seems to be required for ffmpeg-4: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/2eb3cf3b0128510254478cf820714774a5cee449
Unsure if current kodi-9999 remains runable in this respect.


Reproducible: Always

The policy on that ebuild is yours.
I did it a # way in local repo: reversing commit, saving unlocking another hard keyworded package; working fine.

    profiles/base: drop media-tv/kodi[system-ffmpeg force]
    
    The intent is good here, but it causes more harm-than-good. Kodi doesn't really
    keep up with latest ffmpeg at all so this just ends up holding back upgrades
    for people.
