It looks to me like that is correct, it appears to be using its own
internal copy of ffmpeg's libav*.


And I suppose there's no way to change that?  I was trying to create an 
ebuild for ffmpeg-mt (a version that supports multi-core CPUs) to speed 
up playback of full HD video.  This is quite popular in the Windows 
world (most Windows builds of mplayer support multi-core systems by 
using ffmpeg-mt).  There are also debs and RPMs for this floating 
around.  But nothing for Gentoo so I'm trying to roll my own, but I'm 
not sure how to do it.  Bundled libs were always a pain in the bum...

check out this site:

He's got an ebuild for building mplayer with ffmpeg-mt (one of the
comments indicates some minor changes may be needed for recent
versions).

Mplayer's website also mentions SVN snapshots of mplayer with the mt
code as well. The URL given does not resolve for me, though:

I rolled my own and it works very nicely :)

If anyone is interested, I submitted a version-bump bug with all needed 
files:
