Then worry not. LiVES contains no proprietary codecs - it uses only
external libraries for encoding/decoding.

- If you have libmjpegtools installed, LiVES will compile against this,
but in fact it uses only some enums internal to the library.

- dv and ogg/theora are optionally supported by decoder plugins, but
neither of these formats are patented.
