>Description:
I have just noticed that multimedia/nuppelvideo is scheduled for expiration.
In that case, however, I suggest to do the same with multimedia/exportvideo,
since the exportvideo port is merely designed as an add-on to nuppelvideo. In
particular, I had supplied a script with exportvideo (nuv4dvd) which depends
on nuvplay and will turn useless once nuppelvideo is gone. The purpose of
exportvideo was to enable the transcoding .nuv -> .mpg using mjpegtools as
advertised in the nuppelvideo documentation. It is fairly obsolete without
nuppelvideo.
