yes. Using FW-Player needs a license for any commercial site. I 
decompiled the player included in my zip and it's the jw-player, so no 
chance to add this in release.
I now look for alternatives, found some that i can verify.

Anyway, you are free to use any player, download at put it eg to 
fileadmin/player.swf

Then simply configure in TS:
tt_content.swfobject.player = fileadmin/player.swf

I will switch this configuration to tt_content.media later
