dev-php/ffmpeg-php is being removed for the following reasons: * QA Notice: Package triggers severe warnings which indicate that it * may exhibit random runtime failures. * /var/tmp/portage/dev-php/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0-r5/work/php5.6/ffmpeg_movie.c:1251:13: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘avcodec_alloc_frame’ [- Wimplicit-function-declaration] * cc1: warning: function may return address of local variable [-Wreturn-local-addr] * /var/tmp/portage/dev-php/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0-r5/work/php5.6/ffmpeg_frame.c:201:17: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘avcodec_alloc_frame’ [-W implicit-function-declaration] Upstream is dead. The above warnings are likely to cause failures or crashes in PHP. To patch it for the ever moving ffmpeg/libav is difficult. It will not work with PHP 7.x without a major overhaul. So in 2 years time it would need to go anyway. Debian removed it from its distribution in May 2014. A maintained, pure code implementation exists at https://github.com/PHP-FFMpeg/PHP-FFMpeg
