Release notes for GStreamer Good Plugins 1.4.0
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is pleased to announce the first release of
|
||
the stable 1.4 release series. The 1.4 release series is adding new
|
||
features on top of the 1.0 and 1.2 series and is part of the API and
|
||
ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows are provided together
|
||
with this release.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
The stable 1.4 release series is API and ABI compatible with 1.0.x,
|
||
1.2.x and any other 1.x release series in the future. Compared to 1.2.x
|
||
it contains some new features and more intrusive changes that were
|
||
considered too risky as a bugfix.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
"Such ingratitude. After all the times I've saved your life."
|
||
|
||
|
||
A collection of plugins you'd want to have right next to you on the
|
||
battlefield. Shooting sharp and making no mistakes, these plugins have it
|
||
all: good looks, good code, and good licensing. Documented and dressed up
|
||
in tests. If you're looking for a role model to base your own plugin on,
|
||
here it is.
|
||
|
||
|
||
If you find a plot hole or a badly lip-synced line of code in them,
|
||
let us know - it is a matter of honour for us to ensure Blondie doesn't look
|
||
like he's been walking 100 miles through the desert without water.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module contains a set of plugins that we consider to have good quality
|
||
code, correct functionality, our preferred license (LGPL for the plugin
|
||
code, LGPL or LGPL-compatible for the supporting library).
|
||
We believe distributors can safely ship these plugins.
|
||
People writing elements should base their code on these elements.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Other modules containing plugins are:
|
||
|
||
|
||
gst-plugins-base
|
||
contains a basic set of well-supported plugins
|
||
gst-plugins-ugly
|
||
contains a set of well-supported plugins, but might pose problems for
|
||
distributors
|
||
gst-plugins-bad
|
||
contains a set of less supported plugins that haven't passed the
|
||
rigorous quality testing we expect, or are still missing documentation
|
||
and/or unit tests
|
||
gst-libav
|
||
contains a set of codecs plugins based on libav (formerly gst-ffmpeg)
|
||
