Bug Description

Binary package hint: ffmpeg

From

http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/

(October 9, 2007) Apart from a DNxHD encoder, PAFF decoding support for H.264 was committed to svn.

This was missing for ages and is really a requirement for full h264 support. PAFF is for interlaced h264, which is commonly used in tv broadcasts. Also a multithreaded codec would be nice to have. Current snapshot is fully outdated.
