From e88e45ddf6fa0ea0d04376325f6f837b67ff7a2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ionen Wolkens Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2024 06:47:16 -0500 Subject: dev-qt/qtwebengine: adjust system ffmpeg comment Seeing distros that use system's ffmpeg (like Arch) hit obscure issues while it works on Gentoo. Like some mp3 or opus files not playing. In case of mp3, Qt had to do a workaround for system ffmpeg to ensure it picks the right mp3 decoder given chromium does not support the others. Opus case is unclear still. If we ever switch to system (patched) ffmpeg (which would be nice on paper esp. for binpkg due to USE=bindist), it should probably use extra consideration and also be kept optional to debug.
