There are claims that nnedi3.c doesn't constitute its own new
implementation, but is derived from existing HLSL or OpenCL shaders
distributed under the LGPLv3 license.
Until these are resolved, do the "correct" thing and require
--enable-gpl3 to build nnedi.
As suggested in #2033.
Additionally, change "LGPLv2+" to "LGPLv2.1+". Since this was always
used with the "and later" phrase, this doesn't require any further
discussion.
Also clarify that the "+" means "or later". This should be clear to
anyone with a brain, but you never know with copyright.
Now that talloc has been removed, the license can be switched back to
GPLv2+. Actually, there never was a GPLv2+ licensed MPlayer (fork or
not) until now, but removal of some GPLv2-only code makes this possible
now. Rewrite the Copyright file to explain the reasons for the licenses
MPlayer and forks use. The old Copyright file didn't contain anything
interesting anymore, and all information it contained is available at
other places in the source tree.
The reason for the license change itself is that it should improve
interoperability with differently licensed code in general.
This essentially reverts commit 1752808.
Considering that we use version control, maintaining an AUTHORS file
doesn't make much sense, and indeed it was barely touched since the time
mplayer2 forked from MPlayer. None of the contributors to mplayer2 or
mpv are listed in this file (even uau's work is not appropriately
reflected, despite having an entry in this file).
I'm removing this file because it's obviously pointless to keep around,
and moreover it's misleading.
In theory removing this file might be questionable: the git log reaches
back into CVS and SVN times, which don't have separate committer and
author fields for each comment. The commit messages could be incomplete
and not mention the original author, while the AUTHORS file somehow
could. I doubt this is a real concern, since you can always reconstruct
the original AUTHORS file from git.
Another concern is that this could be interpreted as disrespectful to
the people mentioned in this file; but it isn't meant to be
disrespectful.
Also point out a slight irregularity in the Copyright file.
This changes the name of this project to mpv. Most user-visible mentions
of "MPlayer" and "mplayer" are changed to "mpv". The binary name and the
default config file location are changed as well.
The new default config file location is: ~/.mpv/
Remove etc/mplayer.desktop. Apparently this was for the MPlayer GUI,
which has been removed from mplayer2 ages ago.
We don't have a logo, and the MS Windows resource files sort-of require
one, so leave etc/mplayer.ico/.xpm as-is.
Remove the debian and rpm packaging scripts. These contained outdated
dependencies and likely were more harmful than useful. (Patches which
add working and well-tested packaging are welcome.)
Delete mp3lib which has been the default mp3 decoder until now. In
addition to being an unnecessary embedded library it now fails to
compile correctly with the new gcc-4.6, producing noise.
After the deletion the default decoder priority for mp3 will be first
libmpg123 (a newer version of the code that mp3lib was based on) if
available, then ffmp3float which should be available in all normal
compiles. I think that some tweaking may be required as these decoder
alternatives get wider testing, but any problems should be solvable
and there should be no need for mp3lib.
Change license indicated for compiled binaries to GPL 3 to match
talloc.c which is LGPL 3+. Note that at least for now the source
licenses have NOT been changed - almost everything is still GPL 2+ or
compatible, not GPL 3+.
The internal libdvdcss version was only compiled if you used internal
libdvdread too; and libdvdread was not included in the sources, so
that'd only happen if you manually added libdvdread in the build
tree. Keeping libdvdcss for that case probably isn't worth it, so
delete it from the tree. The build system part is still there, so an
internal build is possible if you add the directory back.
Drop internal copy of the tremor library. Note that the internal ogg
demuxer (which is still sometimes useful to work around libavformat
ogg demuxer problems, though it's itself quite buggy) now cannot be
compiled without either external libvorbis or libvorbisidec (tremor).

Remove AAC/FAAD2 installation instructions.
There is nothing special about building and installing FAAD2, so there is
no longer a need to keep maintaining instructions for it.

Remove copy of old and ugly libgsm code and wrapper.
Decoding these formats is supported via FFmpeg both natively and
through libgsm.
