Bug 474346 – media-video/dvdrip-0.98.11-r1: uses ffmpeg command directly and does not work with libav

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nikoli 2013-06-22 20:24:56 UTC]

'grep -Ri avconv' finds nothing in sources, but 'grep -R ffmpeg' finds a lot:
$ cat lib/Video/DVDRip/Title.pm|grep 'ffmpeg '
        . "ffmpeg -r $frame_rate -i - -an -r 1 -ss '$start' -vframes 1 snapshot%03d.png ";

$ cat lib/Video/DVDRip/Depend.pm |grep -i ffmpeg -a2
        suggested => "6.2.3",
    },
    ffmpeg => {
        order       => ++$ORDER,
        command     => "ffmpeg",
        comment     => __ "FFmpeg video converter command line program",
        optional    => 1,
        version_cmd => "ffmpeg -version",
        get_version => sub {
            my ($cmd) = @_;

so, what's the command that should be used that is in both, ffmpeg and libav, then?

[Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2014-03-27 19:29:46 UTC]

if there is none, then sounds like libav should be creating a compability symlink

[Comment 3 Luca Barbato 2014-07-23 18:48:39 UTC]

that syntax is deprecated even in recent ffmpeg version so I doubt a symlink would do any good. 

ubuntu has a patch for it I think anyway.

the patch is no good, it simply does s/ffmpeg/avconv/
