Thanks Stefan. I am not familiar with OSS license, but I know the LGPL has "Redistribute" feature. That means if some commercial products have integrated it, we can use it freely and safety according "Redistribute". By my search on google, I find maemo5 and Fedora have integrated gst-plugin-bad, so by my understanding, it should be ok for me too on gst-plugin-bad. From gstreamer website, it describes gst-plugin-bad not like gst-plugin-ugly. "GStreamer Ugly Plug-ins is a set of plug-ins that have good quality and correct functionality, but distributing them might pose problems. The license on either the plug-ins or the supporting libraries might not be how we'd like. The code might be widely known to present patent problems. " " GStreamer Bad Plug-ins is a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use. " Seems gst-plugin-bad has no license issues but not good quality than gst-plugin-ugly. <div class="gmail_quote">2010/4/21 Stefan Kost <<a href="mailto:ensonic@hora-obscura.de">ensonic@hora-obscura.de</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="im">Liang Zhao wrote: > Hi, > > Could someone help me on aacparse and amrparse license in > gst-plugin-bad?
