Hi guys.

Firstly nice work with dvbcut. It does exactly what is says, and works 
nicely.

As a beginning rpm packager for Fedora, I am wanting to package dvbcut 
for the external livna repo. Ideally this means having my dvbcut package 
require {buildrequire} ffmpeg {-devel} packages as they are already 
available in livna.

It seems there is a whole lot 'o diff between the included ffmpeg and 
various versions I have found packaged for Fedora {livna F7/ F8/ devel, 
freshrpms, atrpms}.

What is the motivation / necessity of including a modified ffmpeg within 
  the dvbcut sources ?

Does the dvbcut source patch bugs in ffmpeg libraries {that could be 
moved upstream} ?

Was the ffmpeg devel moving too fast {moving goalposts} ?

What version {or cvs  or date } did the included ffmpeg originate from ?

Given the developers clear understanding of the code, what would it take 
to move back to using the {current/devel} version of ffmpeg ?

It seems we would need to:
- rename calls to some functions that have had a name change | 
deprecation | and sometimes actual removal.

- missing defs like:
src/streamdata.h:53: error: 'int64_t_C' was not declared in this scope

I grateful for any pointers / info you can give on how you see dvbcut 
developing ;-)
