ffmpeg: remove nonfree flag #587

Closed zhongfly closed 10 months ago

zhongfly commented 10 months ago

"--enable-nonfree" makes ffmpeg unredistributable.But currently there are no dependencies that require this option to be enabled.

Only the following libs in ffmpeg require "--enable-nonfree":decklink,libfdk_aac,libtls.

Since there are no nonfree dependencies, it is actually still redistributable. Some downstream users will enable libfdkacc, nvcc, etc. remove nonfree option would add trouble for them.

They can enable this by themselves.

Since there are no nonfree dependencies, it is actually still redistributable.

Run ffmpeg.exe -L to show license:

This version of ffmpeg has nonfree parts compiled in.
Therefore it is not legally redistributable.

But this option does change the ffmpeg licence.

Oh well whatever it is
