Rockchip's Media Process Platform repo got DMCAd by FFmpeg. SBC users in shambles.https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2025/12/2025-12-18-ffmpeg.md
Everybody wants someone to do something about China and the GPL until someone actually does something.
okay and?
>>107676226kek, not only do the ffmpeg trannies ship tons of CVEs they also sabotage actually useful projects.
>>107676327>CVEsFell for it again
>>107676327This, they should just use the better proprietary version with security... you know, that one...
Based Total GPL Victory
>>107676327if you want to use code, adhere to the license.if you cannot or do not want to do that, don't use the code.super simple stuff.
>>107676327>free thing exists for the public to use>let's take it and make money off it and not share our changes with the public
based, get absolutely fucked
based ffmpeg dunking on chinks
>>107676327>(((useful)))shalom
>>107676226so, what is the winning scenario for ffmpeg here? rockchip is just going to stop sharing their source and only distribute this as a compiled blob. that locks more people out of the source. thanks ffmpeg. really useful.
>>107676226this isn't gonna stop the chinese from doing GPL violations, they'll just stop publishing their code completely and you'd never know.
>>107677728rockchip took LGPL code and relicensed it as apache and deleted the authors file and claimed they wrote the whole thing and refused to fix it after being called out
HOLY BASEDhttps://ploum.net/2023-06-19-more-rms.html
>>107678059https://ploum.net/2024-07-01-opensource_sustainability.html
>>107677773if they do this. why would anybody trust this thing anymore. is the same shit with 3d printers.
>>107676226Anyone got a mirror? Fuck these muh loicense jannies
>>107676226All they had to do was release their modified libavcodec source.
>>107678695because they're chinks and they don't care, cheating is normal for them
>>107676800If it's free and someone pays you for what you added to it, you must have added the value otherwise anyone who wasn't retarded would just do the same thing. Are you retarded, anon?
>>107678865I don't care either bro. I just wanna encode videos. Which these retards are preventing me from now.
>>107676327>ffmpeg CVEsYeah because someone is totally going to make their service accept data files for 90s games. That's the sort of codecs these CVEs are for. If you aren't going to process those game files, disable those codecs at compile time. If you are, don't make a web service where someone can feed it modified versions of the original data files.
>>107678858yeah, my jewish magic was cast on these digits first!
>>107676327All they have to do is keep the authorship information and release under the LGPL instead of Apache.
>>107678912>All they have to do isYou gave your code away for free and now you're trying to back paddle.Either it's free or not free. Trying to micro manage how people use the thing you gave away is pathetic and very fitting for a 0$/hr janitor
Cisgender mirrors:https://github.com/HermanChen/mpphttps://gitee.com/hermanchen82/mpp
>>107676322They also removed attributions and relicense it
>>107678997There's no backpeddling. It was offered free under conditions. They are very easy conditions, but conditions nonetheless. You failed to meet those conditions, and thus your license is void.
>>107679044good. all of that is a circle jerk.
>>107678997It's given away free under the terms of a legally binding agreement. Rockchip knowingly and willingly violated that agreement.
>>107678997Retard doesn't know about licenses
>>107679047>>107679061don't care. will keep downloading >>107679030seethe open sores janny
>>107679075You don't even know what that software does, larper.
>>107679068see the following >>107679068
>>107679081faggot. i use it to encode h265 video rk3588 hardware encoder. seethe harder
>>107679083Actual retard
>>107679093And I just use the ffmpeg command line tool for all of my encoding needs.
>>107676327>>107678849>>107678997This.Fuck these wannabe nazi-fascistic GPL projects. Fuck GNU/FSF/Stallman.Daily reminder to boycott GPLed shitware. Only use permissively licensed (BSD/MIT/Apache) projects, support real freedom.
>>107679120This the only software that can use the rk3588 hardware encoder AFAIK.It's not upstream ffmpeg.
>>107679138Why not simply run ffmpeg on your Intel-based gaming PC?
>>107679120Yeah, I'm also asking myself why this thing is necessary, isn't the the necessary support for hardware encode/decode via v4l2-mem2mem already merged upstream in the kernel and ffmpeg?
>>107679133Sneed, cuck license faggot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oLuJSFZKEs
>>107679133Cuck license
>>107679030thanksjust reported it for the ffmpeg chadshope they nuke it too
>>107676226hilarious>>107676327>>107679133>no coping well at all>>107678997>no really! what is a license? like driving and shieet?hello tyronelmao
>>107679133It's not a coincidence that the GPL world is entirely trooned
>>107679243>Cuck licenseRepeating a meme doesn't make you right. If someone else adding value to your product gets money when you can't, you cucked yourself.
this is like one of my hecking FAFO compilations that i watch on youtube!!!

>>107679133>le heckin cuck license is real freedom n shieet reeeeeKek>But sitting there, quietly powering masses of the internet, without saying boo to a goose, is FreeBSD. And the companies using it? They’re not talking about it. Why? Because they don’t have to. The simple fact that dawned on me is FreeBSD’s gift to us all, yet Achilles heel to itself, is its license.>Unlike the GPL, which requires you to share derivative works, the BSD license doesn’t. You can take FreeBSD code, build on it, and never give anything back. This makes it a great foundation for products — but it also means there’s little reason for companies to return their contributions.https://freebsdfoundation.org/blog/the-report-of-my-death-was-an-exaggeration/
>>107676226The copyright system turned on its head, love to see it
>>107676226wait so what does this mean? I can't use FFMPEG on my Rockchip-based SBCs?
>pirating open source softwareshiggy diggy
>>107679161Multiple megabytes of resident proprietary blobs in UEFI and integrated Malware Engine vs. few kilobytes of boot code.
>>107679177 The BVLL License VS >>107679133 the cuck license Top Kek!
>>107679560You don't seriously mean to tell me that you don't own a laptop or desktop running some sort of x86_64 CPU, do you? Literally everyone has one. It's practically a necessity for most productivity software and games.
>>107676226>>107676327>release under the LGPL instead of Apache.wait, so it had been released under another FOSS license, and this hurt the fee fees of the FFMPEG faggots?LMAO.they could be suing some more malicious targets. they could be fixing security bugs. but instead they decide to waste time on this. totally following the spirit of F/OS software, right? KEK
>>107676327ffmpeg is one of the most important pieces of software in existencei don't really care what they dmca
>>107679966Do you even know the difference between those two licenses?
chinks won
