   Dont mean to hijack this thread, but
   if by "bloody copy of forked ffmpeg" you mean a tarball of ffmpeg-svn 
(without any change)
    , applying some patches needed by avidemux (mainly exposing some 
internals of
    libavcodec), and calling ffmpeg own configure/make to build libav*, 
yes that's true.
