 ffplay version N-81124-g77eb05a-tessus

 I'm trying to play a file (to produce a debug log) using ffplay with
 videotoolbox (VTB) enabled.

 "./ffplay -codecs | grep 264" returns " DEV.LS h264                 H.264
 / AVC / MPEG-4 AVC / MPEG-4 part 10 (decoders: h264 h264_vda ) (encoders:
 libx264 libx264rgb h264_videotoolbox )"

 But when I do "./ffplay -codec:v h264_videotoolbox file.mkv" I get "No
 codec could be found with name 'h264_videotoolbox'".

 Btw using h264_vda crashes ffplay (vda is no longer supported by OS X
 10.11.
