No. It was working fine back in August and before. I only started
getting the floating point errors recently. I "lost" acodec=aac in
rc2. Since I didn't try making any mp4s for my iPod after August, I
can't say exactly when it stopped working, but there have not been many
updates since then. (BTW, I get the floating point error with ffmpeg, too.)

Here is the info for one that was created on Aug. 23. 
Playing MP4/Test.mp4.

I usually update ports within a couple if days of entry into the ports
tree, so the version Aug. 5 most likely worked. I will re-install it
shortly.
