Release notes for
GStreamer FFmpeg Plug-ins 0.10.4
"A jump to the left"
The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
in the 0.10.x stable series of the
GStreamer FFmpeg Plug-ins.
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.
This module contains plug-ins using libraries from the FFmpeg project.
Other modules containing plug-ins are:
- gst-plugins-base
- contains a basic set of well-supported plug-ins
- 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
- New build system based on direct upstream FFmpeg svn
- Much newer FFmpeg with more decoders
- New ffaudioresample element
- Better timestamp handling
- Basic reverse playback
- New codecs wrapped
