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 ?

I'd already commented on this long before. If you'd not like to believe what I said, just investigate the truth for yourself. I'd not like to spend my times in useless debate. If you are not expert in this field, especially directshow programming, you'd better be careful when you make a comment about it without having an enough knowledge. You seem not to understand even the meaning of the post ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) I made, though its conculsion is a bit technical. It's nothing but insult.

If you are really that interrested, read these posts:
