The exact issue can be noticed by running: vlc -vvv --color --list | grep mpeg Which when the software scaler is enabled will show something like: main private warning: cannot load module `/usr/local/lib/vlc/codec/libffmpeg_plugin.so' (/usr/local/lib/vlc/codec/libffmpeg_plugin.so: Undefined symbol "img_resample_init") The issue use of the software scaler was introduced 2 months ago in revision 1.60 of the ffmpeg Makefile. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: The resolution is to remove the "--enable-swscaler" from the CONFIGURE_ARGS of the multimedia/ffmpeg Makefile. There's a mail detailing the issue here: http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/pipermail/pld-bugs/2007-April/008059.html I don't know what the proper way to resolve this issue is. For now I have made a local modification to my own Makefile. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
