Hi Clement,
Thanks for your reply. I am worried about FFMpeg. Since OSG is using
ffmpeg on some functions, some patented algorithms are used inside
ffmpeg. Even my program won't call ffmpeg any function, but I am
worried OSG includes ffmpeg and OSG may have a risk on include
patented algorithm. Does OSG separate from ffmpeg? Thanks.
OSG is not directly including nor using ffmpeg. It is a plugin. So if
you are unsure about licensing/legal issues the best choice is not to
deliver plugins in question.
If my interpretation of GPL/LPGL based licenses is correct, simply
leaving them out will not compromise OSG itself. osgPresentation for
instance is GPL IIRC, but this doesn't affect the OSG license itself.
cheers
Sebastian
Regards,
Clement

Hi all,
Do I need to pay any patent fee or another fee if my commercial
program is using OSG for 3D display? Thanks.

Hi,
standing to OSGPL license (

<http://www.openscenegraph.org/index.php/about/licensing>), you can
freely use OSG in your proprietary products without paying any fee.
