Release notes for GStreamer Base Plugins 1.1.3
2012-10-24 23:54:24 +00:00
The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new bug-fix release
2012-10-07 14:11:10 +00:00
in the 1.x stable series of the
core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
2012-10-07 14:11:10 +00:00
The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users.
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.10.x series.
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.10.x series and
will not affect an existing 0.10.x installation.
