Mmmh. Then the problem is probably not the video. Try reemerging spidermonkey, gjs and gnome-shell; my versions are: [ebuild R #] dev-lang/spidermonkey-1.8.5 USE="-static-libs -test" 0 kB [0] [ebuild R #] dev-libs/gjs-1.30.0 USE="examples -test" 0 kB [0] [ebuild R #] gnome-base/gnome-shell-3.2.0-r1 0 kB [1] Notice that gjs move to the tree, and so the latest version is outside de overlay.
