Description Daniel Engberg freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-03-14 12:06:51 UTC 
This is dead according to upstream and fails to build with FFmpeg 6.0
Instead of patching I'd suggest removal and move to a project that's active, we've already spent too much time keeping it alive.

Potential alternatives:
https://github.com/lightspark/lightspark , https://ruffle.rs/ (neiter are in ports) or VLC

Comment 1 Dirk Meyer freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-03-15 18:54:30 UTC 
Please go ahead and update FFmpeg.

The port will be updated later.
