Another thing to consider Ralf is that I intend to maintain the
package in such a way that it will be trivial to switch between using
the bundled FFmpeg and the non-bundled version using a build
conditional. It should be simple for you to continue building against
your own custom FFmpeg package - you will just need to flip the
"without external_ffmpeg" conditional to "with external_ffmpeg" when
you rebuild your XBMC. See the ongoing work at
http://fedorapeople.org/cgit/alexlan/public_git/xbmc-rpm.git
If you're going through the effort of patching the code to work with the
system FFmpeg anyway, why not make it the default?
