Yes, you may distribute an original or a modified version of a piece of
VideoLAN software as long as you comply with its license terms. It is
the GNU General Public License Version 2 (referred herein as GPL), and
it is in the file named COPYING in our products.

Note: You do not need to ask the VideoLAN team the permission to do so!

The easiest way to conform to the GPL is to accompany the product you
want to distribute with its sources.

Best,
