ffmpeg - lupinglade

It is fully legal, we are not selling ffmpeg, we are selling an application that uses ffmpeg to do some work. Try using ffmpeg alone, doubt anyone will like that much. What you are paying for is for MoviePod, not for ffmpeg... you might notice the registration cost is $10 not $79.99

No credit is givin to ffmpeg.Im pretty sure it is illigal to include a ffmpeg binary along with your shareware software and not even mention ffmpeg,and ffmpeg is free not $79.99.

ffmpeg - mcherve

not illegal at all to sell a GUI. ffmpeg is complex, if ou want to use the command line, you can do it by yourself. If you want to use the GUI pay for it (if it's a shareware).
I didn't try yet the sof t (only DL), the soft jkust have to write somewhere the © of ffmpeg, that's all.
The binary (from CVS or release) is free to distribute. Take a look to the GNU licenses.

PS: if you don't want to pay, don't use a not free GUI, but don't underestimate the advantage of a GUI. Bye
PS2: I have nothing to do with the soft

Don't Pay For this!!!! - joe-stan

In my opion this is a total rip off, No matter if it is legal or not it is WRONG to attempt to profit from the great work being done in the open source area. There are free GUI's avaible for ffmpeg or better yet use the native ffmeg it works great and in the process you may learn something about video file formats.
