Until then I still regard it as FUD. http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?search=patents If you can provide a configure command that would produce a non-patent- encumbered FFmpeg binary and a list of files that must be deleted from FFmpeg tarball so that it can be distributed by Fedora then please do so. I have no time to do this and even if I did, I'd most likely be unable to find all the relevant patents and miss something. Until then, I'll keep maintaining it in RPMFusion.
