Did you read the FIRST post in the issue tracker? http://roundup.ffmpeg.org/roundup/ffmpeg/msg5911

He is shipping binary only versions of a modified version of ffmpeg. He needs to comply with the licence for that code, which (vastly simplified version) means he needs to supply source in some way.

[Usual disclaimers apply about lawyer, and not being same, especially with regards to the legal obligations]

No he isn't - he's shipping unpatched ffmpeg, compressed with UPX.

The first post says they modified MPlayer (not ffmpeg)
