Firstly, our guidelines require that when an upstream source archive
includes third party libraries, access to these internal libraries must
be disabled and the package instead (Build)Require the separately
packaged external library:
<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Duplication_of_system_libraries>

ffmpeg: can't be in fedora, therefore we can't require it.

twolame: this seems to be an alternative to libmad. However, neither can
be included in a Fedora build:

ffmpeg and libmad are enabled at the rpmfusion.org build.

Meanwhile, I would appreciate results of testing you did in the bodhi
comments, with a thumbs up or down depending on what you found ;-)

far}, David Timms.
