the team wants you to link to the source on your website. >Concerning FFmpeg sources, i have absolutely no problem hosting those files on >my servers, but it is my understanding that as i deliver an unmodified version >of this program, it is better to link to an official way to get the sources >(through SVN) instead of providing a static source package that is already obsolete. the gpl says that you have to distribute the source that you used to build the program. while this isnt as important in programs like yours (which do not change any source), it is very important for other programs so that the user may build a working replacement. in essence, its better to link to the source you made your ffmpeg binary from. you can always add a note like 'please use latest ffmpeg source if you want to compile your own' please dont take anything we say too personally, the ffmpeg team is just getting fed up with the numbers of people who arent following the gpl. _____________________________________________________ FFmpeg issue tracker <[email protected]> <https://roundup.ffmpeg.org/roundup/ffmpeg/issue1096> _____________________________________________________
