(NB: music@ list readers may not realize this inquiry is related to Hammad's application for Google Summer of Code). GStreamer will only work for patented formats after you install additional packages from RPMFusion. Ffmpeg is also only available from RPMFusion. In the context of GSoC, in my opinion, your best bet is to drop the "video conversion from any format" feature. You can still make a converter for free formats, and I support Martin's suggestion of GStreamer. If you use GStreamer, adding support for patented formats is as easy as getting the packages from RPMFusion. The reason is that, if it's ever permissible to include converters for patented media formats in Fedora, you would have to "reverse engineer" the format from scratch. I'm not sure reverse engineering a media format is possible, never mind for multiple formats, done by one person, during a GSoC project, when the project is mostly about building a website. So ask your mentor whether the real deployment could use GStreamer packages from RPMFusion in addition to the GStreamer packages already in Fedora. Best of luck!
