For reference, Mandriva packages the -ffmpeg plugin, but disabled the 
questionable codecs in the default version of that package.

We do have an unofficial channel for packages called PLF which provides 
an alternative package but compiled with the patented codecs etc. These 
packages can be installed as "upgrades" to the official ones. So you do 
not need to fiddle around compiling things manually :)
