I see very few distros actually packaging OpenH264 (it's mainly only
used by Firefox, but there's a GStreamer plugin for it too, I think),
but when they do it's either 1.5 (Archlinux AUR) or 1.5.3 (Fedora
23-25). Not using Cisco's binaries voids the patent protection, so I
guess that's why they don't package it.
Depends on whether FFmpeg cares about supporting non-releases. If it
doesn't it should probably be noted somewhere, at least in the wiki.
