                            XVID LICENSE  
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------  
   
 XviD is licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL + Link over controlled  
 interface + location restrictions.  
   
 First part of the file presents the location restrictions and the  
 linking permission. The second part is the GNU GPL v2.  
   
   
   
             LOCATION RESTTRICTION AND LINKING PERMISSION  
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------  
   
 Under section 8 of the GNU General Public License, the copyright  
 holders of XVID explicitly forbid distribution in the following  
 countries:  
   
   - Japan  
   - United States of America  
   
 Linking XviD statically or dynamically with other modules is making a  
 combined work based on XviD.  Thus, the terms and conditions of the  
 GNU General Public License cover the whole combination.  
   
 As a special exception, the copyright holders of XviD give you  
 permission to link XviD with independent modules that communicate with  
 XviD solely through the VFW1.1 and DShow interfaces, regardless of the  
 license terms of these independent modules, and to copy and distribute  
 the resulting combined work under terms of your choice, provided that  
 every copy of the combined work is accompanied by a complete copy of  
 the source code of XviD (the version of XviD used to produce the  
 combined work), being distributed under the terms of the GNU General  
 Public License plus this exception.  An independent module is a module  
 which is not derived from or based on XviD.  
   
 Note that people who make modified versions of XviD are not obligated  
 to grant this special exception for their modified versions; it is  
 their choice whether to do so.  The GNU General Public License gives  
 permission to release a modified version without this exception; this  
 exception also makes it possible to release a modified version which  
 carries forward this exception.
