Hello somebody,
I have a suggestion about this software iTubeGo.
You can download this software for Windows from here:
If you check the its software license. It does not mention Qt licenses or copyrights. Same for the ffmpeg. (I'm getting in touch with the group to query).

It uses Qt5 without any mention of the software license.
You can check the libraries included in this project from here:
I think this is illegal. I will ask for ffmpeg project, OpenGL, GLESv2, widevine...
This is the list of the main directory of this project:

So far, I have only used the LGPL version of Qt. However, I believe that nothing in the commercial license is forcing you to disclose the use of Qt. It most likely depends on the Qt license they are using if they are doing something illegal. FFmpeg would be a different story, though, as most of the library is only available under the GPL or LGPL.
