Roine Gustafsson <[email protected]> added the comment: You are quoting from the Chroma license. As I've already quoted above, the Chroma license DOES NOT COVER libavcodec. libavcodec is distributed under the terms of LGPL, clearly specified in the bundled COPYING license text in the libavcodec framework.
LGPL section 4: "If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code." We provide both the binaries and the source code on the same website. There is a DIRECT LINK to the source code in the help system where libavcodec is credited. Anyone who uses Chroma and want sources to libavcodec will have no problem finding it. The source code download package comes complete with project files for one-click compilation of the framework using XCode, producing a drop in replacement for the framework bundled with Chroma. You don't seem to realize you're trying to peg an FFmpeg license violation on one of the FFmpeg developers. Thanks for watching out for my copyright, but please attack someone who is actually guilty. You could have received all this info if you had just sent us an email asking about it. Not even attempting to contact us about this and instead flog us on the Shame list is very bad form. ____________________________________________________ FFmpeg issue tracker <[email protected]> <https://roundup.ffmpeg.org/roundup/ffmpeg/issue726> ____________________________________________________
