Hi,
I'm interested in developing to xbmc a interface for tuning (I'm not
sure one exists) and using v4l2 for ISDB-T tuners. Which would allow
changing channels, etc.
But, also in this project I would like to add the capability of
playing GINGA interactivity programs received by air. GINGA is a
interactivity standard for the Brazilian Digital TV system (SBTVD). I
have written a library which interprets GINGA programs. But it is not
GPL (particularly, it doesn't allow non-commercial use, though the
source code is available for download). I would like to know if it
would be possible to write a add-on for xbmc which would use this
library (which is header-only) for xbmc, without having to make the
library GPL as well if I distribute this add-on.
PS: I'm not sure if this is implementable as a add-on in xbmc. If not,
would the same be possible as a patch, instead of an add-on?
Thanks in advance,
