There was a much-discussed exploit a few years ago, and there are several 
similar ones:

This is need for MPV and better performance for window managers users 
(dwm/2bm/i3wm and others) If you need something better than primitive 
wallpaper.
Because all configs and utilities stored at dom0.
Yes, i already has compiled FFmpeg from source on dom0 but static linking 
libraries  is a pain.
How can multimedia libraries affect security?
Dom0 already has build-toolchain for compile utlities from source but 
unfortunately not all libraries are enough

Why do you need ffmpeg in dom0?  Dom0 is for admin, not for running
applications.  This is to preserve the security of your whole system.

Hello, Dear Qubes users and devs!

Can you add please FFmpeg libraries and codecs to dom0 repos?
Because it impossible to add RPMfusion repo to Dom0 and synchronize it with 
dnf/qubes-dom0-update mechanism.
it required system-base-release 25 dependencies.

Best Regards, john due
