Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: ffmpeg2theora ended up being incompatible with ffmpeg 5, no upstream movement since 2016, had to be dropped from kinetic moving foward.14:33
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: ok... not sure what that is. Ah  ok, while it does sound useful, is it used by any other SW?14:36
OvenWerksDoes the new ffmpeg perhaps include this functionality already?14:39
Eickmeyer[m]Not sure, but vorlon tried porting it and it ended up getting stuck in a loop and ultimately he had to abandon it.14:41
OvenWerkshttps://ffmpeg.org/general.html#Video-Codecs shows: TheoraEXencoding supported through external library libtheora14:43
OvenWerksSo as long as libtheora is available/working we are fine.14:44
Eickmeyer[m]Yep. ffmpeg2theora was just a utility to easily convert, it wasn't 100% necessary anymore anyhow.14:46
Eickmeyer[m]No rdeps or anything.14:46
