Patented ports > need to be built "NONFREE=on" for patented codecs. I am not sure what > options the ffmpeg package is built with. FreeBSD doesn't cripple packages due to patents. See https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=6356d8c7e8a5 NONFREE in multimedia/ffmpeg refers to the code under GPL-incompatible licenses. It mainly affects OPENSSL and FDK_AAC options. For example, NVENC is enabled by default unlike NONFREE option. FFmpeg also supports CUDA- and NPP- based filters but those are not exposed in the port due to missing dependencies. Both would be NONFREE as SDKs for CUDA (e.g., nvcc) and NPP (e.g., libnpp) are proprietary.home | help
