VLC 2.1.0 compiles and works fine with ffmpeg 2.0.1.
I have built it successfully here:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:wolfi323/vlc
I only added "BuildRequires: -post-build-checks" to the spec file there to get
rid of some "no-return-in-nonvoid-function" errors that made the build fail (I
didn't want to dig deeper into that right now). But those are not related to
ffmpeg, they are also there when building without it (see KDE:Distro:Factory
f.e.).
So I would suggest to just change the "BuildRequires: libffmpeg1-devel" to
libffmpeg-devel again, instead of updating ffmpeg1 (or maybe trying to patch
vlc to build against 1.0.8).
Kind Regards,
Wolfgang
