Hi, Philip Thanks very much. Yes, we only use the LGPL part as dynamic library. But here it is said: http://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html
*Q: Is it perfectly alright to incorporate the whole FFmpeg core into my own commercial product?* A: You might have a problem here. There have been cases where companies have used FFmpeg in their products. These companies found out that once you start trying to make money from patented technologies, the owners of the patents will come after their licensing fees. Notably, MPEG LA is vigilant and diligent about collecting for MPEG-related technologies. Best regards Bin 2011/4/16 siqiao chen <[email protected]> > Hi: > Libavcodec is a free LGPL library.
