- Fails to build with ffmpeg 5 - HOMEPAGE, SRC_URI dead - Not in Debian, Fedora anymore - We already have a huge heap of patches which aren't upstream anywhere CCing maintainers of: - kde-apps/k3b (conditional, USE=encode) - media-plugins/mythplugins (unconditional-ish dep, USE=mytharchive) - media-plugins/vdr-burn - media-video/dvdrip - media-video/chaplin - media-video/dvd9to5 - app-cdr/dvdshrink Please consider masking or dropping support entirely from your packages ifnot interested in fixing up transcode itself.

No objections. It is patched to the point that it was not funny anymore a long time ago, and at least with k3b[encode] ffmpeg seems to be broken since *at least* ffmpeg-4, but probably much earlier.
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #2) > broken since *at least* ffmpeg-4, but probably much earlier. * since 2016 according to some bug reports.
