> As far as I'm aware, VideoLab has nothing to do with the VideoLAN non-profit

VideoLabs is a company which has been founded by one of the creators of VLC/VideoLAN and president of the VideoLAN non-profit.

It's basically a for-profit that hired/employs most of the VLC main contributors and pay them a salary to work on that ecosystem while providing consulting and other services to finance all that.

They are significant contributors to the VLC codebase.

After having worked with them in the context of a partnership, I can add that "for-profit" is mostly the legal form but not the mindset.
