I do have some of thoes packages installed:
  rpm -q mjpegtools ffmpeg kino ffmpeg2theora
  mjpegtools-1.8.0-0.lvn.1.4
  ffmpeg-0.4.9-0.lvn.0.20.20051228.4
  kino-0.7.6-0.lvn.3.4
  package ffmpeg2theora is not installed

I tried to upgrade just these packages but it comes back to 
libavcodec.so.51 for xine-lib
  rpm -q xine-lib
  xine-lib-1.1.1-0.lvn.3.4

What version of xine-lib is in ccrma? Or perhaps your repository has a 
newer ffmpeg then livna, and the solution is for livna to update their 
xine-lib with the new ffmpeg? The guy that runs livna is pritty nice 
and perhaps he would do that, if that is the problem...
I still do not understand where the breakdown is happening though. Your 
version of libavcodec (from ffmpeg) is newer then the livna libavcodec, 
and so xine-lib should be happy, right?

Please advise.
Thanks!
