Except we are. The switch has already been made in virtual/ffmpeg-9. So I have applied this in our latest non-stable ebuild. |
smplayer currently does this: || ( media-video/mplayer${MPLAYER_USE} media-video/mplayer2${MPLAYER_USE} ) Since we are moving to libav as the default codec provider, we should prefer mplayer2 since it supports livav, while mplayer hard-depends on ffmpeg. I will make this change soon if there are no objections.
