Ffmpeg Post of Shame
https://github.com/FFmpeg/web/blob/master/src/shame
Many players use FFmpeg code or modules, but do not abide by the LGPL/GPL agreement.
FFmpeg published many players that did not comply with the agreement on its official website, named Hall Of Shame, so it is called the shame column incident, and its page has now stopped updating.
