Does that means faad2 will stay with 2.0 in F-8 (what about upgrading from freshrpms to rpmfusion in this case ?) same for x264 ? it would be nice to have thoses dependencies updated, and then ffmpeg at the same version as the livna one (probably) but with EVR higher than freshrpms ffmpeg. Now another way would be to rebase F-8 from the F-9 scheme (ffmpeg with swscale introducing ffmpeg-compat for vlc and others). Or even rebase from F-8 and F-9 from Rawhide scheme. But in any cases , I think we need to update faad and x264 (or drop the idea that updating from freshrpms would be safe). That's only a matter of choice.
