| Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.15 "October" |
| |
| |
| |
| 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. |
| It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.8.x series. |
| It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.8.x series. |
| |
| |
| The 0.10.x series has been reworked for threadsafety. It also features |
| various feature additions and enchancements. |
| |
| |
| 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 |
| |
