The included ffmpeg has a beginning-of-file fix where stock ffmpeg
accidentally advances itself past the first keyframe before beginning
decode.

This one means the build had assembly disabled for the scaling function.

This appears to be harmless, though it does indicate that ffmpeg is
seriously confused.

This is ffmpeg being overly chatty.  I'll find a way to shut it up :-)

Yep; dropping keyframes.  I have a spot-fix for it.

Right.

If the internal ffmpeg misbehaves in a way that actually causes
misrender, I want to know about it.
