Hi all, I was doing nothing, lmms was just playing the song attached for few minutes and then : Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I grabbed more than 1000 samples from the GPL games I installed on my girlfriend laptop :) (I recommand PangZero) This sample is one of those. I have a (probably silly, I should ask to google...) question : When a program is licenced under GPL does audio files that come with it are under GPL too ? |

I suspect audio samples fall outside of the GPL (otherwise songs generated using the samples that come with LMMS would be derivative works of LMMS with propagating copyrights and requirements for source distribution--that could get really messy). But even if they do fall under the GPL, it doesn't solve the fundamental problem. You have no way of knowing whether or not the project's authors didn't get the sample from someone who got the sample from someone who just grabbed the sample out of a song on some big label CD or one of those music store sample CDs, which, at least under the bizarre U.S. copyright scheme, means you might be the person who ends up getting sued for the infringement. Of course, the same risk exists for any samples you didn't actually witness being recorded--even the music store sample CDs. However, as with most GPL questions, I think it's more of an ethical than legal concern (of the hundreds of musicians I've known, only one ever made enough money from music to be worth suing). My own unprincipled position is that anything I have to do some work on is fair game. A set of samples with ground loops, not clipped at zero crossings, and/or widely varying amplitudes isn't going to threaten anyone's livelihood. On the other hand, I won't use pristine CD quality samples unless I believe the person who gave them to me has both the equipment and the know-how required to make a high quality analog transfer from a sound source that wasn't a CD.
