The company V-Nova advertises commercial availability of an FFmpeg build
with their proprietary codecs added: https://docs.v-nova.com/v-nova/lcevc
/reference-applications/ffmpeg
While downloads do not appear to be available for non-customers, I feel
it's a safe assumption that they do not provide source code as required by
the LGPL considering the quote "Please note, LCEVC is proprietary to
V-Nova and subject to V-Nova's proprietary licence. Therefore,
distribution of any pre-compiled subsystem is strictly prohibited, even
between group companies."
