Hi there,

MPlayer cannot be built on Tumbleweed since quite some time. One reason
is that it still needs ffmpeg-6 which in turn needs libSvtAv1Enc3 which
no longer exists in TW.

I took some time today and re-created the old SVT-AV1-3.0.1 based
package as a new package A_tw-SVT-AV1 in Essentials; ffmpeg-6 then
needed to restrict the build time requirement for libSvtAv1Enc to ignore
versions >= 4. This resulted in a new build of MPlayer an hour ago.

But, to be honest, MPlayer is a dead horse, isn't it? It hasn't seen a
new release since over 4 years. Shouldn't we disable it for Tumbleweed
at least? As long as it still builds for Leap, it can remain enabled for
them, but the stunts I did with the libSvtAv1Enc3 and ffmpeg-6 fixes are
overkill, aren't they?

What do others think? Should the stuff kept around and MPlayer gets
deactivated after the next build failure, or should I disable it right
away on Tumbleweed?

Cheers.
