Fwd: request for cmplayer 0.8.16 inclusion

[Paulo Dias]

I will work on these warnings.

cmplayer uses ffmpeg not libav, libchardet mightbe usable, libmpv might be
an older version, will check on that one. I could try and see if it builds
with libav but thats not a given.

tks for the review, ill yell once i got this issues solved.
