First off, the first and the second sentence are a contradiction. Second, FFmpeg is (mostly) licensed as LGPL 2.1+, so this code would cause license incompatibilities...
So can we have this as standard LGPL 2.1+ please? Fixed.
That was only a partial fix. Now the promise is for LGPL 2.1, but FFmpeg is LGPL 2.1+ ...
Why this "when this code ever enters the magic wonderland, I shall bestow a free license upon it" in the first place? Get the author to release this as LGPL 2.1+.
He did, when the code enters the FFmpeg code base. I just wanna respect his wishes.
If somebody cleans this up and integrates it into multimedia lib XYZ, it would be without a license grant...
