Hi, I just write here to say that I use Media Player Classic. And its author put a message on SourceForge ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) that made not me very happy. Here it is :
"Recently I've notified about these two products that they use code from the guliverkli project, one of them is free but closed source and not GPLed player (KMPlayer, [Only registered and activated users can see links]), while the other is a fully commercial product ([Only registered and activated users can see links]). There are boundled dshow filters, string, toolbars, dialogs, command line switches, etc..., which can be verified easily by just running the applications and taking a look, or a bit harder by analysing the memory dump. Since I have no better idea about what to do now (I got no reply to the email I sent to kmplayer's developer, it would probably be the same with vx30's too...), I'm posting this as a news here. The developements are going slow anyway because of my job and life, but these cases won't inspire me either."
So what are the facts ?
