AFAICT, the videolan people are the ones developing it and
the mplayer/ffmpeg guys just copied a snapshot of the code over.

I imported it because I have a file that only plays with mplayer and I
usually only install videolan.

So I was planning on either fixing our in-tree (out-of-date) videolan
that looks for libdts and can't use it due to the missing/renamed
headers or wait for the videolan 1.0.0 update to go in-tree
and enable its libdca support.

Ah sorry I didn't notice that.  I had checked that it didn't affect
the LIB_DEPENDS of mplayer but I didn't notice it finding the static
libdts symlink.  I guess I'll just disable the libdts "support" in
libdca unless someone comes up with a better suggestion.
