Embedded VLC License Terms

Postby Programmdude » 28 Mar 2011 04:44

I want to embed VLC into an application I am creating, and I was wondering how "legal" it would be to write the application, have a copy of VLC(probably only the files I need) on the CD/Installer/however I choose to distribute it. Would there be anything else I need.

Then, you probably need to be GPL.
