From d493aa73c6e24c904f62c0db35d2f8ed4f030fd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ilya Tumaykin Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2017 18:31:05 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] profiles/base/package.use.mask: mask mpv[libav] Libav is basically unsupported by mpv, see upstream issues 3923, 3925. Needs patch to even build, subs are broken and not supported anymore. I cannot call such state of mpv[libav] stable with a clear conscious. Upstream's position on libav support leaves little hope the situation will improve in the future. Sorry, but mpv[libav] users will have to migrate to ffmpeg, to another player, send fixes upstream, or live with partly broken functionality. --- profiles/base/package.use.mask | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/profiles/base/package.use.mask b/profiles/base/package.use.mask index 22827b1c0df0..f27ae607f2f6 100644 --- a/profiles/base/package.use.mask +++ b/profiles/base/package.use.mask @@ -7,6 +7,11 @@ # This file is only for generic masks.
