GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer FFmpeg 0.8.5 "For the better of the world"
The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new stable release of the
FFmpeg-based GStreamer plugin.
This module is separated from GStreamer Plugins for easier maintenance
and decoupled release cycles.
Our CVS contains both the patched source code to FFmpeg, as well as the
set of patches against upstream CVS, so we can send patches upstream
regularly from our modifications.
Features of this release
* codecs for most popular formats
* stability fixes
* gcc4 support
* snapshot update to 21/4
* timestamp smoothing
* deinterlacer and scaler elements added
* new codecs for alac, shorten
* much improved h264 support
* some muxers added (mpeg, mp4)
* decoder performance improvements
