GStreamer "Moo" 0.6.4 released
The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new version in the
ABI-stable 0.6.x series.
At this point in time GStreamer is fully functional for creating
audio-based applications, as shown by applications such as
gnome-sound-recorder, [1]rhythmbox, [2]sound-juicer and
nautilus-media.
The video part is known to be somewhat less functional than the audio
part, but applications such as [3]gst-player work very well.
We will also be releasing a development 0.7 release series, in which
we will work on the remaining issues, such as the interactivity
support which is needed for DVD menus and SWF (Flash). This means
developers working on apps needing these services can use the 0.7
series for development and then enable 0.6 support as these additions
optionally get backported to 0.6 once they are stable and work well.
The GStreamer applications we ship all check for both gstreamer-0.6,
gstreamer-libs-0.6 and gstreamer-play-0.6; if those aren't found the
0.7 version of those files are checked for. We suggest anyone making
GStreamer-based apps do the same.
We are starting to have a really nice collection of applications under
development using GStreamer. If you are looking for something specific
check out our [4]applications status page.
Features
* Pipeline based media architecture
* Over 130 plugins
* All parts interchangeable
* Few dependencies, only glib, popt and libxml for core (libxml
optional)
* Python Language bindings
* Good documentation
* Widely deployed through bundling with GNOME 2.2/2.4
* Design catering also for applications needing low-latency
* Highly portable, already running on most mainstream CPU's
* Modular design and use of 3rd party best of breed libraries means
no bloat
* LGPL licensing lays no restrictions on application developers
licensing.
* Easy for applications to ship their own plugins to the core as
needed
* Compiles with both GCC and Forte compilers
* Tested to run on Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris

Support and Bugs
We use [39]Gnome's Bugzilla for bug reports and feature requests. The
"product name" is GStreamer (capital G). Please do the following
before writing a bug report :
gst-feedback &> feedback 2>&1
and attach the file "feedback" to your bug report, so that we have
some information useful in the debugging process.
Developers
GStreamer is [40]hosted on SourceForge. All code is in CVS and can be
checked out from there. Interested developers of the core library,
plug-ins, and applications should subscribe to the gstreamer-devel
list. If there is sufficient interest we will create more lists as
necessary.
We are still looking for people with access to FreeBSD, Solaris,
HP-UX, Irix and True64 that would be willing to try building and
testing GStreamer. Patches fixing such problems are also more than
welcome.
