There was a bug in the ebuilds that would result in blockers. Other than that, you should probably remove all references to ffmpeg and libav from world, and then "emerge -1" either media-video/ffmpeg or media-video/libav according to which implementation you prefer. If you're using media-video/mplayer, then you don't have a choice; you need media-video/ffmpeg. If you're using media-video/mplayer2, then you can use either one.
I forgot to mention that you *need* to set virtual/ffmpeg to the same USE flags you have set for media-video/ffmpeg (or media-video/libav, if you decide to use that one instead.)
That means duplicate USE flags in your package.use: virtual/ffmpeg foo bar baz media-video/libav foo bar baz media-video/libav foo bar baz Yes, virtuals suck.
