Default Kiss violates GPL!! ialmost all code seems to be stolen! :(

It looks kiss has a serios problem with ther firmware ....
It looks there firmware is based on mplayer witch is opensource and protected by gpl.
see this link
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design6/news.html
also mp3 routinges and madlib routines seem te be stolen and also the grapical enviorment
ask ET
So Iam araid the best thing kiss could do is realsese everyting under gpl and the sigma shit as modules allowing us to compile and realy start tweaking this baby!
it also explains why they can noty fix some bugs if all is true because they are simply not capable tio do that

I agree, simply they are not able to do that...

...btw they are able to add some XXX feature
...or to try masking some urls
...and they are great in adding new bugs

If it turns out they used GPL code, they might be releasing that part soon or just rewrite these functions with their own code...

We'll see.

Would be good if it get's released since it will unleash every potential these players have...
