In both cases, in a simplified wording, you have to make sure that a user can take the (FFmpeg) source code, modify it, compile it and can use the newly compiled library with your proprietary application. In case of static linking this means that you have to provide object files. > I know TuneIn Radio uses FFmpeg as well, but they > do not provide source code to download.

I am not a lawyer but I suspect in case of a lawsuit it will make a difference that you asked here what you have to do, that I explained it and that you announced publicly that you not planning to follow the conditions of the software license.
