Dear Jan,
evidently I can't take your reply too seriously but it is interesting
that you care about my answer to a merely curious question of Adrian.
2.
Maybe an OS is an application, maybe not.
1.
ImageJ-1 lacks any licenses, ImageJ-2 doesn't.
Of course there are IJ-PlugIns--that do not come preinstalled with
ImageJ-1--that come with a more or less restrictive license, but I'm
free to use or to avoid them.
In fact, if I wanted to, I could not simply sell my extremely advanced
IJ-plugins bundled with ImageJ-2, but I could with ImageJ-1.
With respect to the more important FFMPEG-question I haven't been
successful.
The command line
java -jar /Applications/ImageJ/ij.jar -ijpath /Applications/ImageJ/
-Djava.library.path=/Applications/ImageJ/libffmpeg.dylib
doesn't work and I tried quite some other suggestions found on the web.
I shall stop with this problem for now because it isn't relevant for me.
Good day
Herbie
