Mplayer available in Taranis ?

I had noticed that packages such as mplayer and mencoder were included in Taranis. A quick apt-cache query shows that this is the filename of the package:

pool/main/m/mplayer/mplayer_1.0~rc3+svn20090426-1ubuntu16trisquel1_amd64.deb

This leads me to believe that Trisquel has modified the package in some way to comply with freedom standards (trisquel is in the package name next to ubuntu).

I looked at the source package, and in the `debian' folder, there is a note that this source package has been stripped of things from the original mplayer source; it references the script `strip.sh', which contains code for the removal of patented or non-free encoders. In the list are h263, h264, mpeg2video, mpeg4, and msmpeg4; I'm not sure entirely how to read it, but it seems to be removing lines of code that compile in those non-free versions. Instead it tends to use ffmpeg, which apparently has also been stripped by a similar script. Run `apt-get source mplayer' and check it yourself, you might find something I missed.
