When ffmpeg is built with the VDPAU option, multimedia/libvdpau is a build dependency, and not a runtime dependency. (See #153581) However, the resulting ffmpeg binary does depend on this library at runtime. Recently 'pkg autoremove' has started to remove the libvdpau package, which causes ffmpeg to fail. I'm not sure why I haven't seen this problem before, though my pkg is now at 1.7.2, so perhaps the autoremove algorithm was tweaked. At the other hand, 'pkg install ffmpeg' does want to install libvdpau, which might be strange if it's just a build dependency. It seems somebody has run into this problem earlier and has created a patch: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-multimedia/2014-December/015403.html This looks good to me, but I would recommend a quick check to see if pkg is doing the right thing.
