GStreamer multimedia framework
Original commit message from CVS: Change soversion back to 0:0:0 and add use of -release flag for libtool. This means that any program linking against libgst will automatically have the specific release of libgst encoded into it. This enforces the fact that (for the moment), the API/ABI is changing rapidly enough that you can't link against 0.3.2 originally and have it still work with 0.3.3. It might be possible, but highly unlikely. When we get closer to a stable API/ABI, in the 0.5.0 timeframe most likely, we will start using soversions as recommended in the libtool docs. Then we have to pay more attention to forward and backwards compatiblity, or rather, we have to *start* paying attention <g> |

This is GStreamer, a framework for streaming media. The fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectMedia. It's based on plug-ins that will provide the various codec and other functionality. The interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple) to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and release the source. Developer note: When building from CVS sources, you will need to run autogen.sh to generate the build system files. GStreamer is cutting-edge stuff. To be a CVS developer, you need cutting-edge tools. ATM, most of us have at least these versions : * autoconf 2.52 (NOT 2.52d) * automake 1.5 * libtool 1.4 * pkg-config 0.8.0 autogen.sh will check for these versions and complain if you don't have them.
