• If a USB connection is used, this unit will only recognize  
one device out of all the recording devices.  
Depending on the video camera, the memory card slot will  
be recognized but the internal device will not be recognized.  
Use the following methods to solve this.  
• If the internal device is not recognized:  
Copy the data from the camera’s internal memory or HDD  
onto the SD card.  
• If the target device is not recognized using the USB  
connection, use the camcorder's burner or a similar device  
to dub the disc before proceeding with dubbing on this unit.  
For more details, refer to "Importing Data from a BD/DVD to  
the HDD" (A page 30) .  
• When importing videos from a USB-connected camcorder,  
data reading from the internal memory of the camcorder  
may fail. If both the camcorder’s internal memory and SD  
card are available, the SD card may be detected first. To  
prevent this from occurring, remove the SD card before  
reading data from the internal memory.

Using the HDMI Consumer  
Electronics Control (HDMI  
CEC)  
Creating a Seamless BD  
When titles are imported into the HDD in the HD quality from  
a video camera, or when edited titles (e.g., after applying  
scene delete) are dubbed to a disc, seamless playback may  
not be possible at the joints of scenes. In this case, perform  
dubbing after executing “SEAMLESS” under the “MODE  
CHANGE” setting menu.  
HDMI Consumer Electronics Control  
• By using a HDMI cable to connect this unit with a TV that  
supports the HDMI CEC standard, this unit and the TV can  
be linked and operated together.  
• HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) is an industrial  
standard that allows HDMI devices to be linked and  
operated among each other by connecting them with a

performed.  
• If scene delete or chapter delete is applied to a title, it  
cannot be dubbed to a BDMV disc without performing  
seamless conversion.  
• For titles that are imported into the HDD in the SD picture  
quality, you can create a seamless DVD by setting  
“SEAMLESS PLAYBACK” under the "Setting Menu List" to  
“ON”, followed by performing re-encode dubbing.  
• If you are not using the HDMI CEC function (deactivating),  
change the setting of “HDMI-CEC” to “OFF”.  
Note:  
• The HDMI CEC function cannot be used if a TV that is not  
compatible with HDMI CEC has been connected.  
• If a HDMI cable is not used for connecting, the HDMI CEC  
function will not be usable.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version  
2, June 1991  
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51  
Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA  
Important Notice  
Concerning the Software  
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies  
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.  
Software License Attached to the Product  
The Software embedded in the Product is composed of  
several independent software components, and in each  
of such individual components, a copyright of a third party  
subsists.  
Preamble  
The licenses for most software are designed to take away  
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU  
General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom  
to share and change free software--to make sure the software  
is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to  
most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any  
other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other  
Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU  
Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to  
your programs, too.  
The Product uses the software component designated in the  
End-User License Agreement that was executed a third party  
(hereinafter "EULA").  
"EULA" covers those corresponding to free software, and,  
as a condition of distribution of the software component in  
executable format which is based on the license granted  
under the GNU General Public License or Lesser General  
Public License (hereinafter "GPL/LGPL"), it requires an  
availability of the source code for the relevant component. For  
details of the software component covered by "GPL/LGPL",  
please visit the following website:  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom,  
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make  
sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free  
software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you  
receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can  
change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs;  
and that you know you can do these things.  
URL : http://www.  
html  
teac.co.jp/support/opensource/index.  
Please note that we are unable to answer any inquiry relating  
to the contents, etc. of the source code.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid  
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender  
the rights.  
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if  
you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.  
Please note that any software component licensed under  
"EULA" which is not subject to "GPL/LGPL", and those  
developed or created independently shall not be subject to  
the requirement for provision of the source code.  
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,  
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all  
the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too,  
receive or can get the source code. And you must show them  
these terms so they know their rights.  
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the  
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal  
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.  
The software component distributed under "GPL/LGPL"  
shall be licensed to users without charge, and, therefore, no  
warranty is given for such software component, either express  
or implied, within the scope of the applicable laws and  
regulations. Unless otherwise permitted by applicable laws  
and regulations or agreed in written form, none of the owners  
of the copyright or persons entitled to alter or redistribute the  
software component under the said license shall have any  
liability for any type of damage or loss resulting from the use  
of or inability to use such software component. For further  
details of the conditions of use of such software component  
or matters required to be complied with, please refer to the  
relevant "GPL/LGPL".  
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make  
certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty  
for this free software. If the software is modified by someone  
else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what  
they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced  
by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.  
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software  
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a  
free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect  
making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have  
made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's  
free use or not licensed at all.  
Users are urged to read the details for the relevant license  
carefully before using the software component covered by  
"GPL/LGPL" and embedded in the Product. Since the terms  
and conditions of individual licenses are provided by third  
parties, the original English version will be included.  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and  
modification follow.

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  
If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the  
Program, and can be reasonably considered independent  
and separate works in themselves, then this License, and  
its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute  
them as separate works. But when you distribute the same  
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the  
Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of  
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to  
the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless  
of who wrote it.  
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS  
AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,  
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION  
0. This License applies to any program or other work which  
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may  
be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.  
The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work,  
and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program  
or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a  
work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim  
or with modifications and/or translated into another language.  
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the  
term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or  
contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather,  
the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of  
derivative or collective works based on the Program.  
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are  
not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The  
act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output  
from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute  
a work based on the Program (independent of having been  
made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends  
on what the Program does.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on  
the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the  
Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium  
does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.  
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based  
on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form  
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you  
also do one of the following:  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the  
Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium,  
provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on  
each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of  
warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License  
and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other  
recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with  
the Program.  
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding  
machinereadable source code, which must be distributed  
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium  
customarily used for software interchange; or,  
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three  
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than  
your cost of physically performing source distribution, a  
complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding  
source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections  
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software  
interchange; or,  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a  
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in  
exchange for a fee.  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or  
any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program,  
and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the  
terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of  
these conditions:  
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to  
the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This  
alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution  
and only if you received the program in object code  
or executable form with such an offer, in accord with  
Subsection b above.)  
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent  
notices stating that you changed the files and the date of  
any change.  
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish,  
that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the  
Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no  
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.  
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the  
work for making modifications to it. For an executable work,  
complete source code means all the source code for all  
modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition  
files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation  
of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source  
code distributed need not include anything that is normally  
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major  
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating  
system on which the executable runs, unless that component  
itself accompanies the executable.  
c) If the modified program normally reads commands  
interactively when run, you must cause it, when started  
running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to  
print or display an announcement including an appropriate  
copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or  
else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users  
may redistribute the program under these conditions, and  
telling the user how to view a copy of this License.  
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering  
access to copy from a designated place, then offering  
equivalent access to copy the source code from the same  
place counts as distribution of the source code, even though  
third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with  
the object code.  
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not  
normally print such an announcement, your work based on  
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the  
Program except as expressly provided under this License.  
Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute  
the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your  
rights under this License. However, parties who have received  
copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have  
their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full  
compliance.  
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted  
in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted  
interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the  
Program under this License may add an explicit geographical  
distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that  
distribution is permitted only in or among countries not  
thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the  
limitation as if written in the body of this License.  
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have  
not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to  
modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These  
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  
Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any  
work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance  
of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for  
copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based  
on it.  
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/  
or new versions of the General Public License from time to  
time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present  
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or  
concerns.  
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the  
Program specifies a version number of this License which  
applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of  
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of  
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.  
If the Program does not specify a version number of this  
License, you may choose any version ever published by the  
Free Software Foundation.  
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work  
based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a  
license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify  
the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may  
not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise  
of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for  
enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.  
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other  
free programs whose distribution conditions are different,  
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which  
is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the  
Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions  
for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of  
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free  
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software  
generally.  
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation  
of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited  
to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether  
by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the  
conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the  
conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to  
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and  
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you  
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent  
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the  
Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly  
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and  
this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the  
Program.  
NO WARRANTY  
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF  
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM,  
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING  
THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES  
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY  
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,  
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED  
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR  
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE  
QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS  
WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE,  
YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY  
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable  
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section  
is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe  
any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity  
of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of  
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,  
which is implemented by public license practices.

ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,

choice.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating  
your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a  
subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit  
linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what  
you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License  
instead of this License.  
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS  
How to Apply These Terms to Your New  
Programs  
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the  
greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve  
this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute  
and change under these terms.  
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is  
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most  
effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file  
should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to  
where the full notice is found.

of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/  
or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public  
License as published by the Free Software Foundation;  
either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later  
version.  
Preamble  
The licenses for most software are designed to take away  
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU  
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your  
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the  
software is free for all its users.  
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,  
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied  
warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public  
License for more details.  
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies  
to some specially designated software packages--typically  
libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other authors  
who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you  
first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary  
General Public License is the better strategy to use in any  
particular case, based on the explanations below.  
You should have received a copy of the GNU General  
Public License along with this program; if not, write to the  
Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth  
Floor, Boston, MA 02110- 1301 USA  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom  
of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed  
to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies  
of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that  
you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you  
can change the software and use pieces of it in new free  
programs; and that you are informed that you can do these  
things.  
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and  
paper mail.  
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like  
this when it starts in an interactive mode:  
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author  
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY;  
for details type `show w'.  
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it  
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that  
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to  
surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to certain  
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or  
if you modify it.  
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should  
show the appropriate parts of the General Public License.  
Of course, the commands you use may be called something  
other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-  
clicks or menu items-- whatever suits your program.  
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether  
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the  
rights that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too,  
receive or can get the source code. If you link other code  
with the library, you must provide complete object files to the  
recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after  
making changes to the library and recompiling it. And you  
must show them these terms so they know their rights.  
You should also get your employer (if you work as a  
programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright  
disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample;  
alter the names:  
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the  
program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers)  
written by James Hacker.  
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we  
copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which  
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify  
the library. To protect each distributor, we want to make it  
very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also,  
if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, the  
recipients should know that what they have is not the original  
version, so that the original author's reputation will not be  
affected by problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the  
existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that  
a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free  
program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent  
holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained  
for a version of the library must be consistent with the full  
freedom of use specified in this license.  
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,  
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION  
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or  
other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright  
holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed  
under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also  
called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".  
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered  
by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license,  
the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain  
designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary  
General Public License. We use this license for certain  
libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free  
programs.  
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or  
data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application  
programs (which use some of those functions and data) to  
form executables.  
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library  
or work which has been distributed under these terms. A  
"work based on the Library" means either the Library or any  
derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work  
containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or  
with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into  
another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without  
limitation in the term "modification".)  
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or  
using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally  
speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library.  
The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such  
linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom.  
The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria  
for linking other code with the library.  
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the  
work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete  
source code means all the source code for all modules it  
contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus  
the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the  
library.  
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License  
because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the  
ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free  
software developers Less of an advantage over competing  
non-free programs.  
These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary  
General Public License for many libraries. However, the  
Lesser license provides advantages in certain special  
circumstances.  
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are  
not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The  
act of running a program using the Library is not restricted,  
and output from such a program is covered only if its contents  
constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the  
use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true  
depends on what the Library does and what the program that  
uses the Library does.  
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need  
toencourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so  
that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free  
programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent  
case is that a free library does the same job as widely used  
non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting  
the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser  
General Public License.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the  
Library's complete source code as you receive it, in any  
medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately  
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and  
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer  
to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and  
distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.  
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-  
free programs enables a greater number of people to use a  
large body of free software. For example, permission to use  
the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more  
people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its  
variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a  
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in  
exchange for a fee.  
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective  
of the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a  
program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and  
the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version  
of the Library.  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any  
portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and  
copy and distribute such modifications or work under the  
terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of  
these conditions:  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution  
and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference  
between a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses  
the library". The former contains code derived from the library,  
whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order  
to run.  
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.  
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent  
notices stating that you changed the files and the date of  
any change.  
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at  
no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

Others  
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a  
table of data to be supplied by an application program that  
uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when  
the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith  
effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not  
supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and  
performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.  
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of  
the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being  
compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the  
Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work  
of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this  
License.  
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the  
Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the  
Library (because it contains portions of the Library), rather  
than a "work that uses the library". The executable is therefore  
covered by this License. Section  
(For example, a function in a library to compute square  
roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent  
of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that  
any application-supplied function or table used by this  
function must be optional: if the application does not supply  
it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)  
6 states terms for distribution of such executables.  
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a  
header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the  
work may be a derivative work of the Library even though  
the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially  
significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if  
the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is  
not precisely defined by law.  
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data  
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small  
inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the  
object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a  
derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus  
portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)  
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If  
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,  
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate  
works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not  
apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate  
works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a  
whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the  
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions  
for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each  
and every part regardless of who wrote it.  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or  
contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather,  
the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of  
derivative or collective works based on the Library.  
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may  
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of  
Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall  
under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with  
the Library itself.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based  
on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the  
Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does  
not bring the other work under the scope of this License.  
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also  
combine or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library  
to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and  
distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that  
the terms permit modification of the work for the customer's  
own use and reverse engineering for debugging such  
modifications.  
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU  
General Public License instead of this License to a given copy  
of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that  
refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU  
General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If  
a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General  
Public License has appeared, then you can specify that  
version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in  
these notices.  
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work  
that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use  
are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this  
License. If the work during execution displays copyright  
notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library  
among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the  
copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:  
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible  
for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License  
applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made  
from that copy.  
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code  
of the Library into a program that is not a library.  
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding  
machine-readable source code for the Library including  
whatever changes were used in the work (which must be  
distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work  
is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete  
machinereadable "work that uses the Library", as object  
code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the  
Library and then relink to produce a modified executable  
containing the modified Library. (It is understood that  
the user who changes the contents of definitions files in  
the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the  
application to use the modified definitions.)  
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or  
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable  
form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that  
you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-  
readable source code, which must be distributed under the  
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily  
used for software interchange.  
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to  
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access  
to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the  
requirement to distribute the source code, even though third  
parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the  
object code.  
108

Others  
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with  
the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at  
run time a copy of the library already present on the user's  
computer system, rather than copying library functions into  
the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified  
version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the  
modified version is interface-compatible with the version  
that the work was made with.  
License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or  
any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance  
of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for  
copying, distributing or modifying the Library or works based  
on it.  
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based  
on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license  
from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify  
the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may  
not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise  
of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for  
enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.  
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least  
three years, to give the same user the materials specified in  
Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost  
of performing this distribution.  
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to  
copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to  
copy the above specified materials from the same place.  
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation  
of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited  
to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether  
by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the  
conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the  
conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to  
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and  
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you  
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent  
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the  
Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly  
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and  
this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the  
Library.  
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of  
thesematerials or that you have already sent this user a  
copy.  
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses  
the Library" must include any data and utility programs  
needed for reproducing the executable from it. However,  
as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need  
not include anything that is normally distributed (in either  
source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,  
kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the  
executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies  
the executable.  
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable  
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section  
is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to  
apply in other circumstances.  
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license  
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally  
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction  
means you cannot use both them and the Library together in  
an executable  
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe  
any patents or other property right claims or to contest  
validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose  
of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution  
system which is implemented by public license practices.  
Many people have made generous contributions to the wide  
range of software distributed through that system in reliance  
on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/  
donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software  
through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that  
choice.  
that you distribute.  
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on  
the Library side-by-side in a single library together with  
other library facilities not covered by this License, and  
distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate  
distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other  
library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you  
do these two things:  
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same  
work based on the Library, uncombined with any other  
library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of  
the Sections above.  
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is  
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.  
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted  
in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted  
interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the  
Library under this License may add an explicit geographical  
distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that  
distribution is permitted only in or among countries not  
thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the  
limitation as if written in the body of this License.  
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of  
the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and  
explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined  
form of the same work.  
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute  
the Library except as expressly provided under this License.  
Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or  
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate  
your rights under this License. However, parties who have  
received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not  
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain  
in full compliance.  
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/  
or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from  
time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to  
the present version, but may differ in detail to address new  
problems or concerns.  
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have  
not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission  
to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works.  
These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If  
the Library specifies a version number of this License which  
applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of  
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of  
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.  
If the Library does not specify a license version number, you  
may choose any version ever published by the Free Software  
Foundation.  
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the  
library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source  
file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty;  
and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a  
pointer to where the full notice is found.  
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what  
it does.>  
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>  
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other  
free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible  
with these, write to the author to ask for permission.  
For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software  
Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we  
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be  
guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all  
derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing  
and reuse of software generally.  
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or  
modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public  
License as published by the Free Software Foundation;  
either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any  
later version.  
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,  
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied  
warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A

NO WARRANTY  
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser  
General Public License along with this library; if not, write to  
the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth  
Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA  
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF  
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY,  
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING  
THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES  
PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY  
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,  
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED  
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR  
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE  
QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH  
YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU  
ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,  
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.  
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and  
paper mail.  
You should also get your employer (if you work as a  
programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright  
disclaimer" for the library, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter  
the names:  
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the  
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James  
Random Hacker.  
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE  
LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT  
HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/  
OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE,  
BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY  
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL  
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO  
USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO  
LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE  
OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES  
OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY  
OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER  
PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF  
SUCH DAMAGES.  
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1990  
Ty Coon, President of Vice  
That's all there is to it!  
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS  
How to Apply These Terms to Your New  
Libraries  
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the  
greatest possible use to the public, we recommend making it  
free software that everyone can redistribute and change. You  
can do so by permitting redistribution under these terms (or,  
alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public  
License).
