Comment(by cedric.luthi@…):

 In #19142, anddam said:

 ''We could create a new port for libmp4v2 like libmp4v2-2 or mp4v2 as it
 is the actual project name. Or we could just leave it at 1.5 as there's no
 point in upgrading a library that noone is using anyway, but this kind of
 discussion should rather be done in #19141.''

 I'm in favor of a new port named mp4v2. I don't agree that there is no
 point in upgrading: the new mp4v2 on googlecode includes some new tools,
 such as `mp4chaps` which does not exist in version 1.5.

 As mentioned, headers are not a problem, version 1.5 installs only
 `/opt/local/include/mp4.h` and version 2.0 installs
 `/opt/local/include/mp4v2/mp4v2.h`

 As both versions are installing `/opt/local/lib/libmp4v2.dylib` there
 might be problems if version 2.0 is not backward compatible.
