I disagree. First you should vote for the global concept of non-hardware closed source libraries. It will avoid doing 20 votes for each time this action will come. > (ok, maybe not NDI, but for > M264/Nvidia/Blackmagic it is definitely not trivial). Those are hardware based libraries, done to access hardware. They are very easy to differentiate from non-hardware libraries. And then, you can do a vote on a per-case basis, if there is a dubious case. -- Jean-Baptiste Kempf - President +33 672 704 734 _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
