[OpenIndiana-discuss] a MP4 media player which works on openindiana ?

On my system I have two versions of ffmpeg:
 /usr/bin/ffmpeg -version

I have built the second one and I think it is not difficult to do it. Also, I have mplayer:
mplayer -v
MPlayer 1.3.0-4.8.5 (C) 2000-2016 MPlayer Team
CPU vendor name: AuthenticAMD  max cpuid level: 13
CPU: AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor (Family: 21, Model: 2, Stepping: 0)
extended cpuid-level: 30
extended cache-info: 134250816
Detected cache-line size is 64 bytes
CPUflags:  MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 0 3DNowExt: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1 SSE3: 1 SSSE3: 1 SSE4: 1 SSE4.2: 1 AVX: 1
Compiled for x86 CPU with extensions
And obviously I can play any video file. I could make an old style package for mplayer if you like.
