[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#834131: Video support still not working

Sorry for not responding on this. I don't really use digikam for video
files and the few videos I had in my digikam collections still did not
run after.

However upstream has dropped QTmultimedia for video handling and uses
QtAV (which in turn is based of ffmpeg). Unfortunately QtAV is not yet
in debian (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=737016),
however upstream provides debian packaging already, which worked almost
fine for me (buildep without -nc flag resulted in an error). This will
take effect in the upcoming 5.4.0 release due at the end of this month.
