Yes. On Windows actually :)

Debian is not the best maintained distro.

Debian doesn’t use pacman. Odds are it was Arch (though pacman has been ported to other platforms).

It was indeed Arch. Not sure about the comment about Debian as IIRC it's more or less the same in Debian. Using gstreamer seems to be more of a GNOME thing than anything to do with distros.

Debian tried to switch from ffmpeg to libav. It didn't turn out well.

But it generally gives me no trouble.

Could you give more details on how it did not turn out well?

As I recall, they were not able to maintain feature, and maybe bug-fix, parity with ffmpeg.
