around the 12/9/05 Verdi mentioned about [videoblogging] MPEG 4 and H.264 Licenses that: >For those of you using MPEG4 or H.264 - check out the QuickTime user >agreement related to commercial uses (if you are thinking of that): > >< http://www.apple.com/legal/sla/quicktime7.html >
this is why qt 6 was delayed. they haggled a long time over the licencing of MPEG4. This is one of the reasons why QT pro costs money - mpeg4 is an international standard administered by an international body. You must purchase a licence to use it (just like most other similar standards) and the licence you get with QT pro is limited (like most other standards...). This doesn't make it a proprietary format - anyone one can buy a licence to make content for it - but it definitely is not open source. -- cheers Adrian Miles hypertext.RMIT <URL:http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/vlog> ------------------------ Yahoo!
