My all MultiMedia codes are completely written from scratch. No disassembling. I believe there are no legal issues. But, I cannot warrant... I should protect myself from any potential problems now...

The main issues for me are 1) restrictions of EULA - some codes may be based on information from non-VS6. I don't want to battle with EULA. 2) afraid to many pending patents. I cannot check all patents... and there are some other reasons I don't want to write... So, finally, I decided to solicite Alexandre...
