Though I am oversimplifying, VLC is just a frontend for ffmpeg (and/or gstreamer, but that's just looks like a framework too).
Really? I have to admit that I'm not aware of the details, but why does vlc-codecs contain these files then? /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/codec/libfaad_plugin.so /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/codec/liblibmpeg2_plugin.so /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/codec/libx264_plugin.so (and also vdpau stuff like /usr/lib64/vlc/libvlc_vdpau.so.0 ) The rest of the vlc packages should indeed the same though AFAIK. OTOH, I personally see no reason not to install vlc(-codecs) from Packman/VideoLAN, if you have to use Packman/VideoLAN for ffmpeg (and gstreamer, in the case of Packman at least) already anyway.
