GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer Base Plug-ins 0.9.6 "White Eight"
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is petrified to announce a new release
|
||
in the 0.9.x development series of the
|
||
GStreamer Base Plug-ins.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module contains a set of reference plugins, base classes for other
|
||
plugins, and helper libraries.
|
||
|
||
This module is kept up-to-date together with the core developments. Element
|
||
writers should look at the elements in this module as a reference for
|
||
their development.
|
||
|
||
This module contains elements for, among others:
|
||
|
||
device plugins: x(v)imagesink, alsa, v4lsrc, cdparanoia
|
||
containers: ogg
|
||
codecs: vorbis, theora
|
||
text: textoverlay, subparse
|
||
sources: audiotestsrc, videotestsrc, gnomevfssrc
|
||
network: tcp
|
||
typefind
|
||
audio processing: audioconvert, adder, audiorate, audioscale, volume
|
||
visualisation: libvisual
|
||
video processing: ffmpegcolorspace
|
||
aggregate elements: decodebin, playbin
|
||
|
||
|
||
Other modules containing plug-ins are:
|
||
|
||
|
||
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
|
||

||

|
||
