    Hi, Alban Bedel!

Sometime (on Friday, March 14 at 19:45) I've received something...

    Albeu, I just send you a letter. May be I'm wrong but I think I have
to write here too. I don't like your way for two reasons: 1) it changes
current syntax; 2) I don't like void* pointers. Beside, I've already done
big part of patch for '-ovc' change. With all said here only way to do it
is to implement syntax '-ovc lavc:option:....' for command line parameter
and 'ovc:lavc = option:....' for config statement. All that stuff need to
implement configurable ve_* and vf_*. But way I do it is incompatible
with yours since I need more flexible and safe way, sorry. So, people,
please, be patient and wait some days for my patch - I need to check it
all thoroughly before sending. That patch will do all stuff of Albeu and
even more! Without changing a syntax (I really hate too complex syntax,
sorry)! :)

    With best wishes.
    Andriy.
