GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.9.4 "Tyrannosaurus Rex"
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is petrified to announce a new release
|
||
in the 0.9.x development series of the
|
||
core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The 0.9.x series is a development series and not recommended for end users.
|
||
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.8.x series.
|
||
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.8.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The main focus of the 0.9 series is to make GStreamer threadsafe.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module, gstreamer, only contains core functionality.
|
||
For actual media playback, you will need other modules.
|
||
|
||
gst-plugins-base
|
||
contains a basic set of well-supported plug-ins
|
||
gst-plugins-good
|
||
contains a set of well-supported plug-ins under our preferred license
|
||
gst-plugins-ugly
|
||
contains a set of well-supported plug-ins, but might pose problems for
|
||
distributors
|
||
gst-plugins-bad
|
||
contains a set of less supported plug-ins that haven't passed the
|
||
rigorous quality testing we expect
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
