[SWLUG] Devel rpms

[P.G. Richardson]

Phil,

Obviously have little idea what you are up to but curious to know why you
think ffmpeg is not fully working?

Have been converting all sorts of files (avi, wmv, mp4, mpg, mp3) over the
last few months with no problems whatsoever. Not least, had no need to
build it as the livna rpms sufficed.

Anyway, wish you best of luck.

Regards

PGR
