Release notes for GStreamer Base Plugins 1.2.0
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new feature release
|
||
in the 1.x stable series of the
|
||
core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users.
|
||
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.10.x series.
|
||
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.10.x series and
|
||
will not affect an existing 0.10.x installation.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module contains a set of reference plugins, base classes for other
|
||
plugins, and helper libraries. It also includes essential elements such
|
||
as audio and video format converters, and higher-level components like playbin,
|
||
decodebin, encodebin, and discoverer.
|
||
|
||
This module is kept up-to-date together with the core developments. Element
|
||
writers should look at the elements in this module as a reference for
|
||
their development.
