GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.7.5 "In A Bar"
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
|
||

Support and Bugs
|
||
|
||
We use GNOME's bugzilla for bug reports and feature requests:
|
||
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer
|
||
|
||
Developers
|
||
|
||
CVS is hosted on cvs.freedesktop.org.
|
||
All code is in CVS and can be checked out from there.
|
||
Interested developers of the core library, plug-ins, and applications should
|
||
subscribe to the gstreamer-devel list. If there is sufficient interest we
|
||
will create more lists as necessary.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Applications
|
||
|
||
As mentioned there are some changes in API/ABI between the 0.6.x and 0.7.x
|
||
releases.
|
||
Many applications will probably be source compatible between 0.6.x. and 0.7.x
|
||
however. Rhythmbox and Sound Juicer
|
||
for instance work very well when compiled on 0.7.x.
|
||
GStreamer Player does not work across releases however,
|
||
so we will make a separate release of gst-player with the needed
|
||
fixes for it to work with 0.7.x. This release contains the core fixes we
|
||
were waiting for to port the player over so expect a gst-player release in
|
||
the near future.
