Bug 387497 – media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20110322-r1: does not support 10-bit h264 video

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Stuart W. Finlayson 2011-10-18 06:12:57 UTC]

media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20110322-r1 does not support 10-bit h264 (a.k.a. High 10) video (which seems to be all the rage now)--it plays it just looks horrible.  Support for it was added into libav and ffmpeg sometime this past May.  So, is there a release for a more recent version of mplayer in the works?
