    libvlc uses libavcodec

    VLC relays on ffmpeg for a lot of video decoding, as do lots of other media programs. Go look up the legal notice on your TV and there’s a good chance the ffmpeg licensing information is in there.

      If you look up the dependencies or legal notices for anything that does anything related to video, audio or maybe even images, it’s very likely that it uses ffmpeg in some way.
