Just be aware that if you strike any bugs and any dmo packages are
involved, it will be closed without any further ado. The deb-multimedia
repository is toxic to a healthy wheezy system. Take it from me, 
I spent ages cleaning up my system when I installed a usual Debian
package and encountered deb-multimedia's versioning fiasco.

To top it all the maintainer of deb-multimedia seems to have no interest
with working with the pkg-multimedia team. :(
