when compiling the new code, I found out that it has a dependency on libffmpeg 
which Malte already acknowledged.

Now there is the problem, that e.g. suse doesn't included libffmpeg, because 
it contains patented code (mpeg2, etc). I don't know about other 
distributions, but I can hardly imagine, that they don't respect the patents. 
I've checked gnomemeeting which suse ships, and it seems they didn't compile 
libffmpeg in here neither. 

Is there any guideline on how KDE handles this? 
I must say, I would also prefer that we don't depend on libffmpeg. 

Greetings,
eva
