Hi there, With the update gstreamer packages to 1.10.4 (that was due in RHEL 7.4 already), the gstreamer1-libav package has bumped the requirement to ffmpeg 3.X. So we are currently in a in-between state. There is also a need to a newer ffmpeg with vlc 3.x that I consider upgrading EL7 to (current vlc 2.2.x version is unmaintained, even debian stable updated from 2.2.x to 3.x because of that). We might give an opportunity to update x264/x265 too and eventually refresh some dependencies here. My plans would be to update to either ffmpeg 3.3x or 3.4.x (the latest from the 3.x branch). there is already a compat-ffmpeg28 package ready to ease the transition. There isn't a terribly high number of el7 packages that depends on ffmpeg fortunately (or not). And it's a shame because EL7 has way more users than any Fedora releases together (according to epel stats (2)). So I really would like some volunteer to take a deeper look at what we can support here.
