+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #307935 +++ media-video/h264enc-9.4.6 is available. Please investigate the dep on media-sound/aacplusenc which blocks media-libs/libaacplus which in turn is needed by recent ffmpeg. I *think* h264enc only needs a binary called aacplusenc, and that is provided by libaacplus as well. I have not investigated this though and don't know if they are commandline-compatible.
9.4.8 has been released.
Created attachment 357900 [details] media-video/h264enc-9.6.0.ebuild ebuild for the current version of the script. Worksforme^TM
10.2.2 is latest. I've got a working ebuild, adds support for dcaenc (new ebuild in tree) and for opus audio codec. Sent out an email to gentoo-dev with feedback for moving opus use flag from local to global. Once that goes through, I'll bump the ebuild.

Is there a technical reason that h264enc requires the installation of media-video/mplayer? mplayer brings in all sorts of extraneous packages, that, as far as I can tell, are not *required* for h264enc to work. If it isn't really needed can it be removed from the ebuild's RDEPEND list?

I use h264enc off & on - so I'm familiar with the basic functionality. The check for mplayer should actually be for mencoder (under Gentoo anyway)... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEncoder So it's an Upstream (h264enc) assumption that mencoder will be bundled with mplayer... Easy to fix with some sed magic or a patch... :-)
10.4.7 is the current version, so I guess this has been handled sometime in the past.
