libbluray / libaacs / libbdplus

[Xavier Bachelot]

Hi,

libbluray is a library to access Blu-Ray disks for video playback. It is
licensed under the LGPL and as such should be fine for Fedora.

http://www.videolan.org/developers/libbluray.html

However, this will only work with blurays not protected with either AACS
or BD+. The libraries that allow to play protected blurays are libaacs
and libbdplus, which can be dlopen'ed by libbluray if present. These
libraries don't provide the keys needed to allow decryption, the keys
file needs to be fetched elsewhere. These 2 libraries are licensed under
LGPL too. Would these 2 libraries be allowed into RPM Fusion or is this
materials for Livna ? This is only a theoretical question for now, as
libaacs and libbdplus are not yet public but should be soon, but I
thought it might worth discuss that before, given the fair amount of
discussion it took to agree on what to do with libdvdcss.

Regards,
Xavier
