Though, there *is* a loophole where, since you are not bundling or distributing the code, you can design it to work with ffmpeg in general and leave it up to the individual user to choose to configure it with the GPL components enabled. GPL/LGPL is not even the real issue (open source fighting over licensing to bring one another down is like ghetto crime but that's a different subject), The real problem is the patent. but again. you are letting each user worry about that individually.

Leaving only H.261, H.263(+) (and webm?) implemented in libavcodec and theora, (dirac, webm) using external libs.
(And some additional "esoteric" codecs.)

Sorry, I didn't follow. Isn't ffmpeg LGPL, like Qt?
"FFmpeg is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) version 2.1 or later. However, FFmpeg incorporates several optional parts and optimizations that are covered by the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later. If those parts get used the GPL applies to all of FFmpeg."
Only if you built it to be LGPL-only.
