I don't understand the fuss. The programs\theKMplayer\ folder contains a file:
files.txt with a list of and links to all the source code they include. They
also have Gnu Public License in a file named LGPL.txt -- so what are we saying
here? That they have to include the actual source code rather than links?
Isn't that a bit absurd, considering this list (from their files.txt):
Licenses of Plugin Libraries
The KMPlayer uses the following libraries as plugin. It is not essential to
execute the player as it is fundamentally based upon the multimedia framework
called directshow. The core part of the player has been written by delphi from
scratch.
