Licence Compliance
AIVE takes open-source licence compliance seriously. Here is how we ensure compliance across our products.
LGPL Compliance (FFmpeg)
FFmpeg is linked dynamically in AIVE ONE Beta, in compliance with LGPL-2.1. Users may replace the FFmpeg shared library with a compatible version of their choosing.
- FFmpeg source code is available at ffmpeg.org
- Our build configuration and patches are available upon request at legal@aive.one
- Dynamic linking allows library replacement without modifying AIVE ONE Beta
GPL Compliance (libx264 / libx265)
H.264 and H.265 encoding libraries are loaded as separate processes via FFmpeg, maintaining licence boundary separation. The AIVE ONE Beta application itself is not distributed under GPL.
- Codec libraries are distributed as independent shared objects
- Source code for GPL components is available upon request
- Users may substitute alternative codec implementations
MIT / BSD / Apache Compliance
All MIT, BSD, and Apache-2.0 licensed dependencies include their required copyright notices and licence texts in the application bundle.
- Licence files are bundled in the
LICENSES directory of the application
- Accessible via Help > Open Source Licenses in the app menu
- A machine-readable SBOM (SPDX format) is available on request
Patent and Codec Licensing
AIVE ONE Beta holds the necessary patent licenses for H.264 (AVC) and H.265 (HEVC) encoding and decoding via the MPEG LA and Access Advance licensing programs. AV1 is royalty-free under the AOMedia patent licence.
Compliance inquiries: If you have questions about our open-source compliance, need source code for GPL components, or require an SBOM for audit purposes, contact
legal@aive.one.
