The VideoLAN Forums

I have researched vlc for some weeks.It is a great work and thank for all the developers.

I want to use vlc and libvlc in commercial software,but these are in GPL and cannot do it.
GPL restrict commercail development.I cannot resean the leaders of company to put commercial resource into it for adding plugins,optimizing reliability.

As I think,the more users use,can take it to much high level and spread it erverywhere.The successful example is apache in world.
Is it possible change GPL to LGPL or Apache license for the libvlc or some part of vlc(such as new plugins) to promote more developers working for vlc?Including open source and commercial companies.

I find the issue about license had a long talk.

Thanks.

In short like in long answer: No.

You can use ActiveX, HTML interface or JS API, if you want, but nothing more.

In short like in long answer: No.
