GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.8.5 "Stuttgart"
|
||
|
||
|
||
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 series.
|
||
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This is the first GStreamer release that compiles with MSVC7 with full
|
||
debug support. Installation of the binaries and the locales are also handled.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module only contains core functionality. For actual media playback,
|
||
you will need other modules. GStreamer Plugins 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.
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
API changed in this release
|
||
|
||
|
||
- API additions:
|
||
|
||
* A new function, gst_scheduler_register, has been added.
|
||
* A new enum member of GstBufferFlag, GST_BUFFER_DELTA_UNIT has been added.
|
||
|
||
- API depreciations:
|
||
|
||
* GstBufferFlag has a deprecated enum member, GST_BUFFER_KEY_UNIT.
|
||
Buffers should be marked with GST_BUFFER_DELTA_UNIT when they're not
|
||
key units instead, since key units are the more common case.
