Release notes for GStreamer libav Plugins 1.6.4

The GStreamer team is pleased to announce a new bug-fix release in the old 1.6 stable series of the core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.

This release only contains bugfixes and it should be safe to update from 1.6.x. For a full list of bugfixes see Bugzilla.

This release maintains API/ABI backwards compatibility with the GStreamer 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6 release series.

This module contains plugins based on the libav project, including codecs.

Other modules containing plugins are:

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
