I set the ~x86 use flag for ffmpeg, getting the newest version in the

re-emerging ffmpeg and all it's dependencies before reverting back to
the older version. Is there a way to do this with the emerge tool?
I've read the man page and Googled but I am unable to turn anything up.
I would remove the installed version, remove the USE flag and just
re-emerge the stable release. If you've changed USE flags as well, then
you may want to do --newuse.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, your suggestion is my "Plan B". I was just
going to try the other and see if it made a difference.
I'm using media-video/vlc to stream video across my lan. This software
uses ffmpeg to do it's encoding. I was just wondering if lower bitrates
were supported in the newer version of ffmpeg, at least as far as vlc is
concerned. I get errors when trying bitrates lower than 32kbps with mp3
audio. Seems I should be able to go lower than that.
Anyway, just fiddling around. :)
Thanks,
Drew
