GStreamer "GEPpiness is a warm gun" 0.4.1 released [1]
|
||||
GStreamer "Toes Wide Open" 0.4.2 released
|
||||
|
||||
The GStreamer team is happy to announce another release of the
|
||||
GStreamer streaming-media framework. This release has mainly focused
|
||||
on code clean-up and rounding out of the features. Large chunks of
|
||||
GStreamer are API stable at this point. In preparation of a stable
|
||||
release, we have also done a thorough license audit to make sure that
|
||||
the licenses of all plug-ins are properly documented, and that as many
|
||||
of them as possible are available under the LGPL license that
|
||||
GStreamer uses.
|
||||
GStreamer are API stable at this point.
|
||||
|
||||
Our development currently focus on the following items:
|
||||
* Increase stability and portability of scheduler
|
||||
* Add more video editing specific plugins
|
||||
* Improve plugins currently used by existing applications
|
||||
* Create language bindings
|
||||
|
||||
We are starting to have a really nice collection of applications under
|
||||
development using GStreamer. If you are looking for something specific

As for the bugs in the 'omega' schedulers, we did not feel they

warranted not releasing 0.4.1 as they are rather obscure. For instance

if you are using Rhythmbox you will need to be playing over 500 songs

nonstop to trigger it. You can choose a different scheduler by passing

--scheduler=(name) to any GStreamer application.

[1] It is a little-known fact that the Beatles decided their track
|
||||
listing for their albums based on a process called the 'GEP' process.
|
||||
After some initial problems, this worked very well. The only known
|
||||
failure of this process happened when George Harrison commited the
|
||||
out-of-place 'Within You Without You' to Sergeant Pepper without
|
||||
review by the other band members. This near split-up led to one of
|
||||
their finest songs on the world-reknowned White Album.
