Release notes for GStreamer Good Plugins 1.3.2
2014-05-21 11:06:35 +00:00
The GStreamer team is pleased to announce the second release of the unstable
2014-05-03 16:02:23 +00:00
1.3 release series. The 1.3 release series is adding new features on top of
the 1.0 and 1.2 series and is part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release
series of the GStreamer multimedia framework. The unstable 1.3 release series
will lead to the stable 1.4 release series in the next weeks, and newly added
API can still change until that point.
2014-05-03 16:02:23 +00:00
Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will be provided separately
during the unstable 1.3 release series.
The versioning scheme that is used in general is that 1.x.y is API and
ABI backwards compatible with previous 1.x.y releases. If x is an even
number it is a stable release series and all releases in this series
will only contain important bugfixes, e.g. the 1.0 series with 1.0.7. If
x is odd it is a development release series that will lead to the next
stable release series 1.x+1 and contains new features and bigger
changes. During the development release series, new API can still
change.

A collection of plugins you'd want to have right next to you on the
battlefield. Shooting sharp and making no mistakes, these plugins have it
2012-10-07 14:31:12 +00:00
all: good looks, good code, and good licensing. Documented and dressed up
in tests. If you're looking for a role model to base your own plugin on,
2012-09-24 13:06:42 +00:00
here it is.
2012-10-07 14:31:12 +00:00
If you find a plot hole or a badly lip-synced line of code in them,
let us know - it is a matter of honour for us to ensure Blondie doesn't look
like he's been walking 100 miles through the desert without water.

This module contains a set of plugins that we consider to have good quality
code, correct functionality, our preferred license (LGPL for the plugin
code, LGPL or LGPL-compatible for the supporting library).
2012-09-24 13:06:42 +00:00
We believe distributors can safely ship these plugins.
People writing elements should base their code on these elements.

gst-plugins-ugly
