| |
| |
| |
| The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release |
| in the 0.10.x stable series of the |
| GStreamer Base Plug-ins. |
| |
| |
| The 0.10.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. |
| |
| |
| |
| This module contains a set of reference plugins, base classes for other |
| plugins, and helper libraries. |
| |
| This module is kept up-to-date together with the core developments. Element |
| writers should look at the elements in this module as a reference for |
| their development. |
| |
| This module contains elements for, among others: |
| |
| device plugins: x(v)imagesink, alsa, v4lsrc, cdparanoia |
| containers: ogg |
| codecs: vorbis, theora |
| text: textoverlay, subparse |
| sources: audiotestsrc, videotestsrc, gnomevfssrc, giosrc |
| network: tcp |
| typefind functions |
| audio processing: audioconvert, adder, audiorate, audioresample, volume |
| visualisation: libvisual |
| video processing: ffmpegcolorspace |
| aggregate elements: uridecodebin, playbin2, decodebin2, decodebin, playbin, encodebin |
| libraries: app, audio, cdda, fft, interfaces, netbuffer, pbutils, riff, rtp, rtsp, sdp, tag, video |
| |
| |
| Other modules containing plug-ins are: |
| |
| |
| 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, gobject-introspection >= 0.9.12 |
| * New encodebin element |
| * New encoding profile and encoding targets API in pbutils |
| * audioresample: corrected buffer duration calculation to account for nonzero initial timestamp |
| * audioresample: provide as much valid output ts and offset as valid input |
| * audioresample: push half a history length, instead of a full history length, at end-of-stream so that output segment and input segment have same duration |
| * decodebin2: deprecate new-decoded-pad and removed-decoded-pad signals (use "pad-added" and "pad-removed" instead) |
| * multifdsink: add first and last buffer's timestamp to the stats; only keep last valid timestamp |
| * oggdemux: extract more tags (vorbis comment headers, Kate) |
| * oggdemux: ignore header pages when looking for keyframe; set headers on caps |
| * oggdemux: fix interpretation of Theora granule position and parsing of Theora size |
| * oggparse: Set DELTA_UNIT on buffers |
| * playbin2: delay stream-changed messages, fixing KATE subtitle recognition |
| * textoverlay: make text, xpos, ypos, color, and silent properties controllable |
| * typefinding: (E)AC-3 and ISO typefinder improvements; add yuv4mpeg typefinder |
| * typefinding: add "stream-format" to h264 caps, and framed=false to DTS caps |
| * typefinding: assume EBML files without doctype are matroska |
| * videorate: fix behaviour for frame rate cap changes |
| * vorbisdec: avoid using invalid timestamps; keep timestamps when no decoded output |
| * ximagesink, xvimagesink: add read-only window-width and window-height properties |
| * baseaudiopay: fix timestamps on buffer lists |
| * baseaudiosink: protect against ringbuffer disappearing while in a query |
| * basedepay: add support for buffer lists in the depayloader |
| * basertppay: use RTP base time when invalid timestamps |
| * rtpbuffer: relax arrangement for RTP bufferlists |
| * rtpdepayloader: add support for getting events |
| * rtppayload: copy applied rate to segment |
| * sdp: add method to check for multicast addresses |
| * sdp: only parse TTL for IP4 addresses |
| * video: add 8-bit paletted RGB, YUV9, YVU9 and IYU1 video formats |
| * video: return correct component width/height for A420 |
