This increase is welcome and should be encouraged over the usage of bundled versions of libavcodec. However, ffmpeg itself depends (optionally) on some of these ports, which creates CIRCULAR dependencies. We should create a separate multimedia/libavcodec with all of those -- such= as libsoxr and chromaprint, and the rest of ffmpeg -- depending on it.
