I tried with 'apt-get source' and the archive it gives me won't build,
even if it's supposed to be the base of the ubuntu package....

You're probably right, going for ffmpeg seems like the best move as it's
actively maintained and supporting a lot of codecs. But that probably
means more work that I'm able to do now and I don't even know if I could
do it, I know nothing about those librairies.

Welcome to the club :o)

Yeah, sorry I didn't try that first. With the attached WindowMedia patch
the bundle builds. It then fails in the MusePack bundle but is fixed
with the Musepack-new-API patch.

And now compilation stops in the OSS bundle with :

This one should probably be disabled by default.
