So, passing an empty directory to mpv causes a segmentation fault? Do you know if it was fixed "deliberately" by ffmpeg (or mpv, not sure which program is responsible here), or just as a side effect of some other change? If the latter, they may be interested to know about the bug. > > Removed libquvi from it as that has been removed from mpv and is not being > updated. We like to commit unrelated changes separately. So, unless the removal of libquvi is required to build version 3.0 of ffmpeg, I think it should be done in a separate commit. Can you revise your patches? Also, is libquvi causing some problem with our ffmpeg package? I don't understand the reason for removing it; I'm not familiar with quvi at all. > > Changed a configure flag --disable-mipsdspr1 to --disable-mipsdsp - this is > just a rename.

Okay, thanks for the info.
