OK ... I bit the bullet and replaced faad2-2.5 with faad2-2.0 on my F7
installation:

# rpm -Uvh --oldpackage faad2-2.0-19.20050131.lvn6.x86_64.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:faad2                  ########################################### [100%]



Now if I upgrade ffmpeg, which it is going to from livna, I still have
this problem:

# yum update ffmpeg

I still have this missing dependency about libx264.so.54.


Searching for the above error message via google returns me back to this thread.
Searching for libx264 on rpm.pbonet.net shows a package called x264,
but there does not appear to be a package for it for F7:
