GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.8.12 "Thanks for the cookies"
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new release
|
||
in the 0.8.x stable series of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The 0.8.x series is a stable series aimed at end users.
|
||
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.6.x or 0.10.x series.
|
||
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x and 0.10.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module only contains core functionality. For actual media playback,
|
||
you will need other modules. GStreamer Plug-ins contains a huge set of
|
||
additional plugins. GStreamer FFmpeg contains a plugin based on the popular
|
||
FFmpeg decoding library. These modules need not have the same source version
|
||
as the core, as long as they are in the 0.8.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
