There are quite a lot of proprietary gstreamer codecs around. It's worth
reading the GStreamer maintainers' rationale from the time that they
clarified their interpretation of the LGPL:
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/licensing.html

In particular, applications using gstreamer need to be aware of the
gstreamer licensing position, and potentially add an exception allowing
the use of proprietary gstreamer plug-ins.
