| This is GStreamer gst-plugins-base 1.14.4. | |
| The GStreamer team is pleased to announce another bug-fix release in the | |
| stable 1.x API series of your favourite cross-platform multimedia framework! | |
| The 1.14 release series adds new features on top of the 1.12 series and is | |
| part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia | |
| framework. | |
| Full release notes can be found at: | |
| https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.14/ | |
| Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will be provided shortly | |
| after the release. | |
| This module will not be very useful by itself and should be used in conjunction | |
| with other GStreamer modules for a complete multimedia experience. | |
| - gstreamer: provides the core GStreamer libraries and some generic plugins | |
| - gst-plugins-base: a basic set of well-supported plugins and additional | |
| media-specific GStreamer helper libraries for audio, | |
| video, rtsp, rtp, tags, OpenGL, etc. | |
| - gst-plugins-good: a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred | |
| license | |
| - gst-plugins-ugly: a set of well-supported plugins which might pose | |
| problems for distributors | |
| - gst-plugins-bad: a set of plugins of varying quality that have not made | |
| their way into one of core/base/good/ugly yet, for one | |
| reason or another. Many of these are are production quality | |
| elements, but may still be missing documentation or unit | |
| tests; others haven't passed the rigorous quality testing | |
| we expect yet. | |
| - gst-libav: a set of codecs plugins based on the ffmpeg library. This is | |
| where you can find audio and video decoders and encoders | |
| for a wide variety of formats including H.264, AAC, etc. | |
| - gstreamer-vaapi: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding using | |
| VA-API on Linux. Primarily for Intel graphics hardware. | |
| - gst-omx: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding, primarily for | |
| embedded Linux systems that provide an OpenMax | |
| implementation layer such as the Raspberry Pi. | |
