Description Marius Stoica 2024-07-18 08:21:22 UTC

Failed to build media-video/obs-studio[vlc] with both media-video/vlc-3.0.9999 and media-video/vlc-9999. Earlier versions of vlc depend on an too old version of media-video/ffmpeg to take into account.


It emerges fine without the vlc use flag.

If intend to use things that links with vlc, I'd stick with vlc3. If you want newer ffmpeg, you can disable USE=vaapi on it if don't mind losing that (only reason vlc3 depend son old ffmpeg).

I don't think (most) upstreams will really want to work on vlc4 support until there's at least a beta or rc released and things are more finalized.

Yes. Don't unmask 9999 versions without fully expecting to put your own time into fixing issues, by, for example, or at minimum, searching for an existing upstream bug regarding vlc4 porting and linking back here.

Otherwise this is a RESOLVED/UPSTREAM case (but still good to know if they're working on it or not).
