| Release notes for GStreamer 1.9.2 |
| |
| The GStreamer team is pleased to announce the second release of the unstable |
| 1.9 release series, which marks the feature freeze for 1.10. The 1.9 release |
| series is adding new features on top of the 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 series |
| and is part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer |
| multimedia framework. The unstable 1.9 release series will lead to the stable |
| 1.10 release series in the next weeks. Any newly added API can still change |
| until that point. |
| |
| |
| Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will be provided in the next days. |
| |
| |
| 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 plugins |
| gst-plugins-good |
| contains a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred license |
| gst-plugins-ugly |
| contains a set of well-supported plugins, but might pose problems for |
| distributors |
| gst-plugins-bad |
| contains a set of less supported plugins that haven't passed the |
| rigorous quality testing we expect, or are still missing documentation |
| and/or unit tests |
| gst-libav |
| contains a set of codecs plugins based on libav (formerly gst-ffmpeg) |
