I have no problem at all with someone telling where to find this and that, however I've problem with someone telling where to find this and that and gathering money from it (crappy sex ads). Regarding the license problem, if there is one, it should be adressed with the right people infringing, of course, being media cell or tpb, but I think it should be forwarded to SFLC. -- Baptiste COUDURIER GnuPG Key Id: 0x5C1ABAAA Key fingerprint 8D77134D20CC9220201FC5DB0AC9325C5C1ABAAA FFmpeg maintainer http://www.ffmpeg.org
