I'm making a service for indie filmmakers to self distribute films and this has been a big pickle.

I was making an encoder for them to download using ffmpeg but then realized I may have wasted my time because of the licensing of h264.

So the problem became: do I take the cost and encode their video or do I let them send the video prencoded for me. I had assumed that if they had encoding software that they have already paid for a license. Anyways, i've added support for ogg to the service (with warnings about it's usability).

Does anyone know if sorenson squeeze has this licensing issue?
