This is a matter of taste. FFmpeg has that policy, but MPlayer, on the other hand, has the policy "if it is present on the system, enable it". I believe most programs adopt the same policy as MPlayer for features that can not normally cause problems when unused. By the way, I would very much like (but not enough to start working on it right now, sorry) to have the "--enable-auto" option to enable auto-detection for all external libraries. Amongst other things, that would allow MPlayer's configure to call FFmpeg's instead of reimplementing it. Regards, -- Nicolas George
