Description tot-to 2013-06-14 17:15:09 UTC
ffmpeg have only general "encode" flag. For example if I want to be able to encode MP3s, but want only to play AMRs, ebuild will install unnecessary media-libs/vo-amrwbenc

I suggest to create separate flags like amr, amrenc, etc

Reproducible: Always

+  add amrenc useflag to have a more finegrained control, bug #473284

amr seems to be the only one that was used both for encoding and decoding so added this one
