Allright, it's next on the list.

I have just tried to build the new upstream snapshot you provided - 
with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=risky and all of the unofficial codecs enabled. 
After some tweaking everything worked flawlessly, instead for some 
soname inconsistencies between the Debian packages and the libraries 
which led to some warnings during 'debian/rules binary' (but I guess 
you expected this allready, since decision about the sonames isn't 
finished yet).

I have created the get-orig-source rule but I am not able to try it 
out myself because obviously the mplayerhq-Server is blocked by our 
firewall or similar. :/
Then I have changed to versioning scheme from 0.cvs* to 0.svn* since 
we actually do not obtain sources from CVS anymore.

Am I allowed to commit my changes?

Cheers,
Fabian

PS: Can we please get rid of this silly '-free' suffix in the source 
package name? We allready have discussed about it: Debian's ffmpeg is 
not even a bit more free than others'; and if there were potentially 
non-free codecs in the code, we do still ship them but simply keep 
them disabled.
