| GStreamer 0.3.2 "Do-B-day" released |
| |
| Release Notes |
| |
| The GStreamer team is happy to announce another release of the |
| GStreamer streaming-media framework. GStreamer now contains close to |
| 100 plugins for reading, writing and manipulating audio and video. We |
| are rapidly approaching a stable set of libraries. Our sample |
| applications are, however, still under development. |
| |
| We now have a gst-all module prepared that includes all of our source |
| modules in one easy-to-compile package. |
| |
| Future Plans |
| |
| Our goal for the next release is stabilizing and improving the current |
| feature set of GStreamer further, including introducing an improved |
| autoplugger module for even better handling of media formats. We will |
| also focus more attention at our media player sample application as |
| this is the application most users and developers probably will use to |
| get aquinted with the framework. |
| |
| For help building GStreamer, take a look at our build help document. |

| |
| GStreamer is hosted on SourceForge, so support requests and bugs may |
| be filed as usual. Interested developers of the core library, plugins, |
| and applications should subscribe to the gstreamer-devel list. If |
| there is sufficient interest we will create more lists as necessary. |
| |
| We are still looking for people with access to Solaris, HP-UX, Irix |
| and True64 that would be willing to try building and testing |
| GStreamer. Patches fixing such problems are also more than welcome. |
