None that I know of, but as I noted, there's a lot of "if", "maybe",
"don't know" in my mail, also evidenced by the fact that mplayer is
still in NEW, and not rejected or accepted. Yes, ffmpeg would be the
same issue I mentioned (but it's not sure mplayer doesn't have more
issues than that), but just as we have no certainty that mpeg encoding
is okay, we also have no certainty that mpeg encoding is *not* okay. So
while this is still unclear, we're leaving the situation as it is, not
making it potentially worse by accepting mplayer, but also not seeing
enough grounds to remove ffmpeg.
