So, passing an empty directory to mpv causes a segmentation fault? Do
you know if it was fixed "deliberately" by ffmpeg (or mpv, not sure
which program is responsible here), or just as a side effect of some
other change? If the latter, they may be interested to know about the
bug.

We like to commit unrelated changes separately. So, unless the removal
of libquvi is required to build version 3.0 of ffmpeg, I think it should
be done in a separate commit. Can you revise your patches?
Also, is libquvi causing some problem with our ffmpeg package? I don't
understand the reason for removing it; I'm not familiar with quvi at
all.

Okay, thanks for the info.
