GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.7.6 "Almost"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new release in the
|
|
|
|
|
0.7.x development series of the GStreamer streaming-media framework.
|
|
|
|
|
The goal of this release series is to stabilize towards a 0.8
|
|
|
|
|
release series which will be part of the GNOME 2.6 releases
|
|
|
|
|
and hopefully eventually KDE 4.x.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0.7.6 is a Release Candidate for GStreamer 0.8.0
|
|
|
|
|
It is released to shake out the last bugs that might be still present
|
|
|
|
|
due to major/minor number differences.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 0.7 series is a development series and is aimed at developers.
|
|
|
|
|
It is NOT API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.6.x series or
|
|
|
|
|
with other releases in the series. This means you can not use this
|
|
|
|
|
release to upgrade your current GStreamer installation and expect your
|
|
|
|
|
GStreamer applications to keep working without a recompile.
|
|
|
|
|
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x series.
|
|
|
|
|

|
