PS2 IPHONE EMULATOR ANDROID

After a good discussion with him about these issues, we have been assured that it will no longer be a problem by the time the emulator releases. These concerns of course extended out to this new emulator, and we had to reach out about it to Tahlreth.

If these mentioned libraries are removed, the entire project would become purely LGPL licensed. By distributing the code when requested we comply with the GPLv3 license. The existence of these 3rd party GPL parts means that PCSX2 as a combined works needs to comply to the GPLv3 license but our source code that we own remains LGPL.

libmpeg2 which is used for video decoding.

The FreeType library which is used for our OSD.

However, there's also 3 bits of GPL code used in the project that remain: PCSX2's core code is LGPLv3 licensed, which is compatible with the GPLv3 license, and all the plugin code which has been merged during the 1.7 dev cycle was relicensed to LGPL with authorisation from the authors, too. Since there have also been several people concerned about the licensing behind PCSX2, we decided to try and explain the situation and how it pertains to the GPL and LGPL license.

But instead of being met with hostility, the developer was very forthcoming and friendly, and was more than willing to discuss the remaining barriers, and the path to overcome them.

While the latter is due to it being based on an LGPL licensed emulator for PC (that's us!), the former is due to the clever work of the developer Tahlreth.ДЄs you can expect, at first we were very skeptical about this, due to the whole situation with DamonPS2 that you may remember a new Android emulator appearing needed to be approached with caution.

An exciting bit of news! As you have probably seen by now, there is a new Android emulator in town called AetherSX2, which shows to have very promising performance and compatibility.
