DivX Open License
=================
Version 2.1
This version of the DivX Open License supercedes any prior versions.
Copyright (C) 2001 Project Mayo. Everyone is permitted to copy and
distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing
it is not allowed.
Provided below is our open source license agreement ("License") under
which we provide the Codec (defined below) to you free of charge.
Please read it carefully.
BY USING, COPYING, MODIFYING, OR DISTRIBUTING THE CODEC OR A LARGER
WORK (DEFINED BELOW), YOU INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS LICENSE
TO DO SO, AND ALL ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
For purposes of this Agreement, the "Codec" shall mean the OpenDivX
compression/decompression software provided to you by Project Mayo
("Project Mayo") and any derivative work thereof, that is to say, a
work containing the Codec or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
modifications and/or translated into another language. A "Larger Work"
shall mean any work including or integrating the Codec as an object
file or linked library. "Encoded Content" shall mean any multimedia
content encoded as output of the Codec, even if that Codec is
integrated into a Larger Work.
Permission is granted to you to use the Codec for any purpose,
and to copy it, alter it and redistribute it, subject to the
following:
1. You may modify your copy or copies of the Codec or any portion
of it, provided that you cause the modified files to carry
prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the
date of any such change.
2. You may copy, distribute, display and transmit the Codec's
source code, in any medium, subject to the following:
a. You must conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy
an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep
intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence
of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Codec a copy of
this License along with the Codec.
b. You must cause any Codec that you distribute or publish to be licensed
as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
License. However, you may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring
a copy of the Codec, and you may at your option offer warranty protection
in exchange for a fee.
c. In each instance in which you attribute ownership or authorship of
the Codec you will include an acknowledgement in a location viewable
to users of the Codec as follows: "This product includes software
developed by or derived from software developed by Project Mayo."
In any event, the origin of the Codec must not be misrepresented; you
must not claim sole authorship in the Codec.
d. Each time you redistribute the Codec, the recipient automatically
receives a license from Project Mayo to copy, distribute or modify the
Codec subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any
further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
3. You may copy and distribute the Codec in object code or executable
form under the terms of Section 2, provided that you also accompany
it with the complete machine-readable source code, or make such
source-code freely and publicly available.
4. You may incorporate the Codec into a Larger Work and distribute
that Larger Work under terms of your choice, provided that:
a. The terms permit modification of the work for the customer's own
use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
b. You include an acknowledgement in a location viewable to users
of a distribution of a Larger Work as follows: "This product includes
software developed by or derived from software developed by Project Mayo."
5. Any Codec or Larger Works created by you must conform to the
MPEG-4 Video Standard, however modules of the Codec that do not
derive from MoMuSys can be used and incorporated into a non-MPEG-4
conforming work that otherwise complies with this license.
6. Except as provided in section 7 below, you must receive prior
express written permission from Project Mayo before you use the names
"DivX;-)" or "DivX" (or any names incorporating those names) or the
file extensions ".divx" or ".div" to promote or endorse any products
derived from the Codec, including, but not limited to Larger Works.
7. You must use the ".divx" file extension in any Encoded Content,
when tools for this purpose are readily available. For Encoded Content
used for a commercial purpose, you must prominently display the
"Encoded in DivX" logo on the package of any Encoded Content in a
manner immediately visible to viewers and you must include the
"Encoded in DivX" video logo at the beginning of any Encoded Content
when the means for such display are reasonably available.
8. The Codec contains copyrighted materials that are proprietary to
Project Mayo, and no rights are granted to you except as expressly provided
herein. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, display, distribute or
transmit the Codec except as expressly provided under this License. Any
act or attempt to copy, modify, sublicense, display, distribute or transmit
the Codec other than as permitted herein will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies
from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
long as such parties remain in full compliance.

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE DISCLAIMED. IN NO EVENT SHALL PROJECT MAYO OR ITS
