GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer 0.8.4 "Paella"
|
||
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new release
|
||
in the 0.8.x stable series of the GStreamer streaming-media framework.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The 0.8.x series is a stable series aimed at end users.
|
||
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.6.x series.
|
||
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This module only contains core functionality. For actual media playback,
|
||
you will need other modules. GStreamer Plugins contains a huge set of
|
||
additional plugins. GStreamer FFmpeg contains a plugin based on the popular
|
||
FFmpeg decoding library. These modules need not have the same source version
|
||
as the core, as long as they are in the 0.8.x series.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Features of this release
|
||
|
||
* Parallel installability with 0.6.x series
|
||

Known issues
|
||
|
||
* Some applications may print warnings on the console saying
|
||
something like:
|
||
GStreamer-WARNING **: pad xvimagesink0:sink returned caps that are not a
|
||
real subset of its template caps.
|
||
|
||
It is safe to ignore this warning. It will be fixed in the next release
|
||
of the GStreamer Plugins.
