Release notes for GStreamer 1.5.91
The GStreamer team is pleased to announce the second release candidate for the
stable 1.6 release series. The 1.6 release series is adding new features on top of
the 1.0, 1.2 and 1.4 series and is part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release
series of the GStreamer multimedia framework. The final 1.6.0 release is planned
in the next few days unless any major bugs are found.
Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will be provided separately by
the GStreamer project.
This module, gstreamer, only contains core functionality.
For actual media playback, you will need other modules.
gst-plugins-base
contains a basic set of well-supported plugins
gst-plugins-good
contains a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred license
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)
