Hi there, I am currently working on an app that would utilize the capabalities of the devices H.264 codec exposed via the new MediaCodec API. I assume the vendor's have to pay the respective royalties to the MPEG-LA for shipping a device with an H.264 capable encoder. But is this true? Can I legally (and without paying any extra royalties) use the system encoders?
[1] mentions that "the rules of MPEG-LA require that if Company A uses Company B's encoder in their product, Company A must pay the fees, not Company B." I know this mailinglist might not be the right address for licensing questions but I just hope any one of you already had to examine this situation.
