I see that mplayer does not have a dep on ffmpeg. Am I right in assuming
that mplayer on Gentoo uses its own, bundled ffmpeg?
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...
