Comment(by ecronin@…):

 Replying to [comment:16 macsforever2000@…]:
 > BTW, I think this port has too many variants. I think all the codecs
 should simply be built-in by default.

 (past-maintainer hat on) the codecs are for encoding only which isn't
 always clear, and aren't needed by people who only want to watch movies.
 Short of splitting out a separate mencoder port a +extra_encoders variant
 is as far as I'd suggest, especially where x264 and xvid update so
 frequently...  Also, I've never really seen to point of libcaca and libaa,
 if other variants are looking to be removed
