- A lot of work to support new Intel hardware using media-driver as VA
backend.
- For non-x86 devices, VAAPI display can instantiate, through DRM,
with no PCI bus. This enables the usage of libva-v4l2-request

GStreamer Editing Services and NLE
- this section will be filled in in due course
- Added a gesdemux element, it is an auto pluggable element that
allows decoding edit list like files supported by GES
- Added gessrc which wraps a GESTimeline as a standard source element
(implementing the ges protocol handler)
- Added basic support for videorate::rate property potentially
allowing changing playback speed
- Layer priority is now fully automatic and they should be moved with
the new ges_timeline_move_layer method, ges_layer_set_priority is
now deprecated.
- Added a ges_timeline_element_get_layer_priority so we can simply get
all information about GESTimelineElement position in the timeline
- GESVideoSource now auto orientates the images if it is defined in a
meta (overridable).
- Added some PyGObject overrides to make the API more pythonic
- The threading model has been made more explicit with safe guard to
make sure not thread safe APIs are not used from the wrong threads.
It is also now possible to properly handle in what thread the API
should be used.
- Optimized GESClip and GESTrackElement creation
- Added a way to compile out the old, unused and deprecated
GESPitiviFormatter
- Re implemented the timeline editing API making it faster and making
the code much more maintainable
- Simplified usage of nlecomposition outside GES by removing quirks in
it API usage and removing the need to treat it specially from an
application perspective.
- ges-launch-1.0:
- Added support to add titles to the timeline
- Enhance the help auto generating it from the code
- Deprecate ges_timeline_load_from_uri as loading the timeline should
be done through a project now
- MANY leaks have been plugged and the unit testsuite is now “leak
free”
GStreamer validate

- Added an action type to verify the checksum of the sink last-sample
- Added an include keyword to validate scenarios
- Added the notion of variable in scenarios, with the set-vars keyword
- Started adding support for “performance” like tests by allowing to
define the number of dropped buffers or the minimum buffer frequency
on a specific pad
- Added a validateflow plugin which allows defining the data flow to
be seen on a particular pad and verifying that following runs match
the expectations
- Added support for appsrc based test definition so we can instrument
the data pushed into the pipeline from scenarios
- Added a mockdecryptor allowing adding tests with on encrypted files,
the element will potentially be instrumented with a validate
scenario
- gst-validate-launcher:
- Cleaned up output
- Changed the default for “muting” tests as user doesnt expect
hundreds of windows to show up when running the testsuite
- Fixed the outputted xunit files to be compatible with GitLab
- Added support to run tests on media files in push mode (using
pushfile://)
- Added support for running inside gst-build
- Added support for running ssim tests on rendered files
- Added a way to simply define tests on pipelines through a simple
.json file
- Added a python app to easily run python testsuite reusing all
the launcher features
- Added flatpak knowledge so we can print backtrace even when
running from within flatpak
- Added a way to automatically generated “known issues”
suppressions lines
- Added a way to rerun tests to check if they are flaky and added
a way to tolerate tests known to be flaky
- Add a way to output html log files
