I'm not sure what is the license of this library and how can I use it. From one angle, its very clear the main repo license is MIT as stated here: https://github.com/illuspas/Node-Media-Server/blob/master/LICENSE.

On the other hand, some of the file in the repo have a copyright notice. https://github.com/illuspas/Node-Media-Server/blob/master/src/node_http_server.js#L1-L5

Copyright and license are two different things.

Whoever writes it owns the copyright. What you permit others to do with it is the license.
