Description Brice Collins 2005-06-16 18:39:52 UTC

There have been many advances lately in multimedia codecs. especially with the
release of H.264 the new quicktime codec ffmpeg supports it but all ffmpeg
ebuilds are older than the builds that support it and ffmpeg changed from
actuall builds and now uses only cvs i guess that nobody likes to make cvs
ebuilds but there is a place on their site where you can download cvs snapshots
and there is one that is allways the newest one current..tar.bz2 anyways it
would be really nice to have a new ffmpeg ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
