The Navis app
Navis is free software under the GNU General Public License, version 3 or later. Its source code is at github.com/Porthorion/Navis. The open-source packages it uses are listed inside the app under Settings > About > Open-Source Licenses.
libmpv and FFmpeg
On Windows and Linux, Navis plays audio with libmpv, which includes FFmpeg, used under the GNU Lesser General Public License, with mpv and FFmpeg built without their GPL or non-free parts. libmpv ships as a separate, replaceable shared library. Each build below has a SOURCES.md file listing the exact source archives it was built from, which sit next to it. The Android app plays audio through ExoPlayer and doesn't include libmpv.
