[MPlayer-dev-eng] Mplayer's licence (not a flame)

Hello!

Looking at mplayer's code I found out that there are many parts
which have no explicitly given licence!
Could developers please tell me which licence covers those sources?
I guess it would be useful not only for my xp branch but and for
mplayer too. (if Arpi wants make it GPL'ed, of course).
If you are author then PLEASE tell me - could I redistribute your
stuff under GPL v2, what can be redistributed as separated work
(LGPL like licence), what can be redistributed in binary form, and
other conditions?

Parts:
Gui    - ???
g72x   - Sun's licence (was removed)
input  - ???
liba52 - GPL v2
libao2 - ???
libdha - GPL v2
libmp1e - GPL v2 (obsolete - was removed)
libmpcodecs - ???
libmpdemux - ???
libmpeg2 - GPL v2
libvo - ??? (except my stuff)
loader - ??? (obsolete will be removed, probably)
libmp3 - LGPL (can be redistributed as separated work and used in .so form)
osdep - ??? (except my stuff)
postproc - GPL v2
vidix - GPL v2
xa - strange licence (was removed)

RTjpegN - GPL v2
ac3-iec958 - GPL v2
adpcm - ???
alaw - ???
asxparser - ???
bswap - GPL v2
cinepak - ???
cpudetect - ???
cyuv - ???

msvidc - ???

qtrle - ???

mplayer (as whole (un)splittable package):
mplayer.c, playtree[*].c, subreader, vobsub, mp-opt[*], mp-cfg[*] mp-help[*], ... - ???

mencoder - was removed

libodivx, encoder, libac3 - were removed already (obsolete or non-GPL code).

Best regards! Nick
