yes, it will be surely change, to LGPL or something else special.
btw currently it's GPL, so we can fork, and continue developing/optimizing
current GPL version, independent from possible new LPGL/??? ffmpeg.

btw projectmayo guys will release their closed-source divx and opendivx
codec for linux, in library form. i've got a beta, but can't test it now :(
(yes, they have divx 3.11 compatible codec too, but it was secret until
today)

btw i still prefer ffmpeg stuff, than projectmayos closedsource stuff.

no. you're right.

YV12 will help for most users with bandwith problems (amd users).
it transfers 12 bit for each pixels, instad of 16 bits/pixel of YUY2.
and teh codec don't have to convert YV12->YUY2 internally.
