| Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.32 "Take Me to the Bonus Level" |
| |
| |
| |
| The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release |
| in the 0.10.x stable series of the |
| core of the GStreamer streaming media framework. |
| |
| |
| The 0.10.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. |
| |
| |
| 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 plug-ins |
| 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 |
| |

| Features of this release |
| |
| * GLib requirement is now >= 2.22 |
| * New core element: valve (moved from -bad) |
| * New core element: input-selector (N.B. without "select-all" property, use fsfunnel instead) (moved from -bad) |
| * New core element: output-selector (with different negotiation behaviour by default, set pad-negotiation-mode=active for previous behaviour) (moved from -bad) |
| * Performance improvements for many heavily-used code paths: GstPad, GstPoll, GstClock, GstTask, basesink, basesrc, queue2, multiqueue |
| * gobject-introspection: add annotations for most core API |
| * clock: make sync clock wait lockfree |
| * fdsrc/fdsink: reenable on MSVC |
| * registry: fix GStatBuf definition for win32 when building against older glib (fixes unnecessary rescanning of plugins at start-up) |
| * element: add a more flexible way to get request pads from elements |
| * multiqueue: return upon input when already eos |
| * object: fix creation of default name (when creating more than 100000 elements) |
| * pluginloader: fix hangs on OSX |
| * poll: fixes for (p)select backend (used e.g. on OSX) |
| * poll: refactor and make more lockfree; fixes for win32 and OSX (pselect backend) |
| * registry: don't replace valid existing plugins by blacklisted ones |
| * tags: don't produce duplicated entries when merging same value twice |
| * basesink: preroll fixes for async=false case |
| * basesink: rework position reporting code |
| * basetransform: handle downstream giving a buffer with new caps but invalid size |
