That is 100% correct.
My code, however, does not contain LGPL'd code. It merely links to the .dll's I provided. It is perfectly safe and compatible to link to libavcodec of the FFmpeg project when using the code I provided. The FFmpeg-related code has been in .dlls all the time. The code I use is from various public domain tutorials for FFmpeg. Linking is allowed under the GNU LGPL. Please get your facts straight before you email this list, if you have any further license questions feel free to contact me personally instead of on this list. Recently 50% of the discussion has been license-related nonsense and people don't care. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
