I have an iOS app which use the ffmpeg library, and iOS should compile in static link. According to the LGPLv2, do I release my source code related my UI or other bussiness logic ?

Answer 1

The interaction between the LGPL and Apple's app store is a disputed issue. The only way to get advice you can rely on is to ask a lawyer. I believe that you have two choices -- you can either open source your entire application or you can make available all the object code (.o and .a files) needed to re-link your application.
