</div>the package distributed by debian-multimedia is not based on ffmpeg 0.6,<br>
it is just horribly and confusingly named. It is based on SVN trunk,<br>
were a lot of development is going on, and such compatibility bugs still<br>
need to be found and ironed out. Christian Marillat is obviously not<br>
helping with that at all.<br>

this bug closed.<br>

</div>Well, for exactly reasons like this, I find installing libraries from<br>
3rd party repositories problematic at least.<br>

</div>Well, you've reported an imcomplete bug, and I've told you what<br>
information is missing. It would be great if you could help with filling<br>
the gaps.<br>
