GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer Plugins 0.8.3 "Water"
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new release
|
||
in the 0.8.x stable series of the GStreamer Plugins.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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 module contains plugins providing media encoding and decoding,
|
||
conversion, effects, and other elements that provide actual media
|
||
handling functionality to the core. You need the GStreamer core module
|
||
to make them work. The versions do not need to match exactly, as long
|
||
as all of them are in the 0.8.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The FFmpeg-based decoder element has been moved to its own module. If you
|
||
want support for a lot of popular video formats, you need to install this
|
||
module along with the GStreamer Core and Plugins. An FFmpeg-based colorspace
|
||
element has been added to the Plugins however.
|
||
|
||
|
||

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

Applications

|

The GConf settings have moved to a versioned location and can now be found
|
||
under /system/gstreamer/0.8. Applications should use the gconf library,
|
||
as provided by gstreamer-gconf-0.8.pc, to access the default settings.
