As you can see from the rpmsodiff output, only one symbol was removed.

vlc builds indeed, I can look into setting up a test environment to
check whether it runs. In any case, f20 is eons away so there will be
plenty of time to fix this.
When it comes to mplayer, each branch contains the latest mplayer that
will build together with ffmpeg shipped on said branch. ffmpeg-1.2
allows building today's snapshot, so the update limit has not been
reached yet.
