Am I allowed?

Postby planethax » 18 Feb 2008 20:22

I do not want to cross post, so I hope this is in correct section.

My question;
I made a little app in VB6, to download flv videos from my webpage, and I want to then convert to .mpg
I have used the axvlc.dll successfully to do so.
Now my question is, can I now use inno setup to package my app AND AXVLC.DLL and distibute it?

Or can I add the Vlc player to my setup script and Install this first? Would that be Allowed/Better?
Thanx.
(I do not want to do something that is frowned on or illeagal)

If you use the ActiveX dll, you need to distribute the LICENSE file GPLv2 at the same time to explain that some of your complete application is under GPL
