I would like to propose new package ffmpeg which is
well known audio/video tool. ffmpeg is ported to
many linux distributions and other unix like systems
as well as widows. Since there is windows build,
the demand of cygwin port might be relatively small,
however its libraries are usefull for other softwares.
I have posted another ITP for MOC (Music On Console)
which is a ncurses based music player, whose plugin
uses ffmpeg libraries.
I have already prepared the ffmpeg package as follows.
https://tyan0.yr32.net/cygwin/x86_64/release/ffmpeg/
To build ffmpeg, other new packages i.e., x264, x265 and
xvidcore are required, I have proposed ITP at the same
time.

For a long time, ffmpeg was not included in Fedora, due to concerns about codec patents, but those issues seem to have been resolved. Can you please investigate what configuration is used in Fedora, and what the effects of matching that would be?

As well as looking at:

        https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ffmpeg/tree/

I've found it useful to look at other work done in recent forks e.g.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/yselkowitz/rpms/ffmpeg/commits/rawhide

and other distros; OpenSuSE and Arch are like Fedora; Gentoo is like Cygwin; OpenBSD is behind on v4 so skipped:
