Description ldbeth 2018-06-13 05:53:39 UTC

The offical ffmpeg lacks some codec needed to play video CGs in PSP games, which causes videos to be broken in PPSSPP. Instead PPSSPP uses its slimmed-down build of ffmpeg.

https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/11173

I'm new to FreeBSD's port so I don't know if it is more proper to leave a seperate port to that version of ffmpeg or directly include into emulators/ppsspp.

Thanks in advance.

Adding support for bundled ffmpeg requires a lot of QA:
- FreeBSD port supports 10.4, 11.1, 11.2, 12.0; amd64, i386, aarch64, armv6, armv7
- DragonFly port uses FreeBSD port as a base (currently no modifications)
  https://github.com/DragonFlyBSD/DeltaPorts/tree/master/ports/emulators/ppsspp/
- linking against pre-built binaries undermines trust and hinders debugging
- https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/bundled-libs.html

Anyway, closing this one unless you can still reproduce. If so report which games are affected.
