Hi Rüdiger, I think it is in everyone's interest to upgrade ffmpeg at some point, and at the time we discussed your proposal, we didn't want to destabilize the build as we were trying to get to the next release. Right now, I don't see any reason not to do the upgrade (others may chime in if they think differently) and I very much welcome the fact that you were able to get it done!
The failing unit tests are a general problem and are not related to ffmpeg. I think all of us are on the same page that there can't be a commit without running unit and integration tests. In case that it happens regardless, everybody should obliged and free to ping the developer and roll back the conflicting changes, so other developers are not blocked in their local work.
