Comment(by rmsfisher@…):
GTKPod does not work properly with the new mp4v2.
GTKPod had preliminary support for a few functions in an early version of
the fork but will not build against the currently-ported version because
of major syntax changes.
This whole fiasco stems from the developers of a single upstream project
(HandBrake) tiring of the limitations of a widely-used shared library; by
rewriting that library in a fashion that broke backwards-compatibility
those developers made their project much more of a fork rather than an
upgrade.
I would suggest we resurrect mpeg4ip/libmp4v2, but only if it could be
done in a way that ensures mutual exclusivity with mp4v2.
