Re: Re: Bug#529974: RFP: rtmpdump -- download media streamed with the RTMP/RTMPE protocol

2010-05-31 Thread Fabian Greffrath

There must be a good *reason* why Christian still maintains ffmpeg
and mplayer in d-m.o even though same-named packages are also in
Debian.

Maybe he likes the extra work??


Maybe because he activates some 5 more built-in encoders in ffmpeg and 
links it against some 5 more libraries like libmp3lame and libx264, 
which we can't since they are not in Debian. And no, it turns out he 
does not set value on collaboration with the Debian pkg-multimedia 
team or even attempt to keep his libraries at least binary compatible 
to the ones in Debian.


Please concern yourself with the multimedia patent and codec situation 
in Debian next time, before you post bullshit to debian-devel.

That's what I thought.  Thanks for confirming it.

OK.

LOL

Let me quote siret...@debian.org :
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/05/msg01131.html


what licensing issues do you see in rtmpdump, ffmpeg or mplayer?! they
are all (L)GPL which is perfectly DFSG compatible. Before you come up
with FUD about patents, DMCA, etc. - pretty please don't. there is
already enough FUD floating around.


So, you say, concern myself with patent issues, and Reinhard says, 
ignore the patent issues.

No, that's not what I'm saying. Read again.

2010-05-31 Thread Fabian Greffrath

So, you say, concern myself with patent issues, and Reinhard
says, ignore the patent issues.


No! If feel the need to quote us, please do it at least correctly!

Reinhard did not say to ignore the patent issue. He asked you to
stop throwing oil on the fire, as the whole media patent story has
already been chewed through several times on different lists without
leading to any satisfying results yet (see #522373). Using the next
best media library ITP to pick this topic up again won't help either.

And I did not say you should concern yourself with patent issues. I
did say you should concern yourself with the current multimedia
situation in Debian. I takes some 5 minutes of research to find out
why specific packages are present in both Debian and d-m.o. And it
takes some more 5 minutes to find out that we (i.e. the pkg-multimedia
team in Debian) are very unpleased with this situation.

There are wheels you can look at and find design inspiration into. And
there are others you shouldn’t look at since all you get will be bad
ideas and broken patches. That includes Ubuntu universe, Fedora rawhide
and debian-multimedia.org.
