  ffmpeg-mt enabled mutithreaded decoding for ffmpeg. This is necesary for
  watch e.g. h264 movies with huge bitrates (+1kbit/s).
  ffmpeg-mt is currently located here: http://gitorious.org/ffmpeg/ffmpeg-mt
 
  Description on http://gitorious.org/ffmpeg/ffmpeg-mt:
  Experimental multithreaded decoding branch of FFmpeg, based on a project
  for Google SoC 2008. See mt-work/todo.txt for remaining tasks.
 
  Please consider adding it to the official repositories.
 
 thank you for you report.
 
 unfortunately, ffmpeg-mt is not really supported by ffmpeg upstream, and
 known to cause various regressions depending on the exact date of the
 snapshot. For these reason, I consider ffmpeg-mt unreasonable to
 package.

 ffmpeg-mt has been merged into ffmpeg mainline. I suppose the same will
 happen for libav (or has happened already?), so this should no longer
 be wontfix?

It has been partly integrated into both branches, mplayer2 still prefers
ffmpeg-mt, which (so I suppose) is because of the regressions introduced
by the merge. Libav has actually started merging it even earlier, but is
still missing important codecs like h264-mt, which is currently being
worked on very hard. For instance, vp8-mt has been posted for review
just yesterday.

With this, I'm updating the tags of this bugs.
