Please remove the current precompiled binaries libvdecoder.so and libvencoder.so from the tree, and make sure it can be rebuilt from the supplied sources.

These binaries also needs to be removed from allwinner-zh/media-codec-lib repository until Allwinner provide the full source code which is now required as they contain LGPL licenced code.
