Details

Description:
I tried to use x264 to re-encode a video file on the command line.
Unfortunately, if failed, and upon a little investigation it seems that x264 is not compiled with support for lavf

on the command line:
x264 --help | head -n 20

Read the "infile" section.
Towards the end there it mentions libav* formats, but requires either lavf or ffms support to be compiled in.
Apparently, if ffmpeg is installed when x264 is compiled it automatically picks it up.


Also, how is it possible to have AviSynth support compiled in? It's not even a package in Arch.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
1:142.20140311

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Just try to re-encode any video with x264 on the command line.
This task depends upon

I initially thought it will cause circular dependency, but that's not the case after x264/libx264 split. I'll take your request into consideration after making a rebuild list.
