[MPlayer-dev-eng] Released Aud-X codec DLL

[Marek Dziubinski Aud-X]

Hi,
thank you for replies.

Yes it is legal.

I.e. we have modified some open source projects,
such as AC3enc, and VirtualDubMod.
VDM (the complete project) is released on our site.
AC3enc will be released soon (sorry for the delay, so many things to do...).

We also used LAME, but as far as I am concerned,
there were no modifications necessary (i.e. Aud-X spatial codding
is a separate thing, than the psychoacoustic engine from LAME mp3).
But if it will be necessary, it can be also published on www.aud-x.com
(no need, since there are no modifications)


Since I am only Aud-X developer (not the project owner),
I can speak only for myself... I wish it would be an open source project.

But it isn't...

Therefore only DLLs are available for encoding and decoding.
I hope this is not very discouraging for you guys, because I (and thousends
of other users) find this project useful and interesting.
And it is free...even though not open source...

In case of further questions,
I'd be happy to provide more info.

Cheers,
Marek

Could you please clarify this part?

Is Aud-X legal? What about copyrights?

Yes - Aud-X is fully legal piece of software. Aud-X Codec is Aud-X
invention, and we grant you rights to use it. Read “License Agreement”
to find out more details. Aud-X for compatibility reasons uses parts of
lame mp3 code and AC3Enc code. Both are distributed under GNU license.
No other licensed code is used within Aud-X.
