Impressive work! But seeing the references to France makes me think of the (unreasonably limiting) laws. I’m under the impression that decompiling 3rd party software and disclosing the internals is quite illegal, isn’t it?

I believe the VLC developers are based in France.

I did not know before you posted this comment... But I think in this case I did not publish any exploits so this should be legal?

I’m not sure. I’m not too familiar with this. I’d just recommend checking so you don’t get into some silly trouble.
