- What I did
Switch to defaulting to OE core ffmpeg &
meta-openembedded vlc.
- Reason
Upgrades to newer rpi-distro VLC version
in an OE environment have proven to be
tedious due to all the PI foundation patches.
Some patches aren't fully pushed into github
and require updates to build.
Maintaining patches have also proven to be unstable.
Default to stable builds of both so that peoples
builds aren't broken.
If rpi-distro version of ffmpeg & vlc wanted
users may switch by setting PREFFERED_PROVIDER.
