Description Sven Gothel 2013-02-07 00:14:16 CET
This is essential for Windows and OSX,
maybe also helpful for some GNU/Linux machines.

However, only patent free codecs are allowed in such bundled native libav/ffmpeg.

Usefull resource:
http://libav.org/legal.html

If we want to bundle libav under the lgpl license we may start by
Compile Libav without "--enable-gpl" and without "--enable-nonfree"
and then follow the checklist inside the libav legal.html resource.

Ok but it would be fine to provide a script code path to re-enable GPL stuff for people who want to rebuild this feature and who are allowed to use them which is my case as my main project is under GPL v2.

By the way, I would be interested in Aomedia Video 1 more than in WebM...
