Rockchip gets DMCA'ed on media acceleration - biketool - 01-05-2026
Looks like this has been going on for a while,takingffmpeg components as their own and then releasing on an incompatible Apache license. This is gonna burn PPpro and Pinetab users I think, guess we will wait and see.

looks like the other repos are up and only media acceleration is DCMA'ed.

though someone could just fork and re-license correctly I think...

If you need the code, there are mirrors of that repository. (I am not going to link to them.)

Yeah, that lines up with what I’ve seen too. Rockchip does keep a mirror of the code on their site, so at least it’s not completely gone if someone needs to dig into it. Still a messy situation overall, especially with the licensing angle.
