98 Changes from the 0.8 series to 0.10 series:
100 * Refcounting and API revised for thread safety, see rules in
101 docs/design/part-MT-refcounting.txt
103 * Scheduling is now done by the elements, they start/stop
104 processing threads themselves. This removes the need for
105 a separate scheduler.
107 * State changes now happen from sink to source. This makes sure
108 that downstream elements are ready to process data when upstream
111 * EOS/ERROR/... does not change the state of elements anymore. This
112 means that when the application sets the state on an element, it
113 remains in this state.
115 * GMainLoop integration. Information on the state of the pipeline
116 is now received in the mainloop via the GstBus.
118 * Events move separate from the datastream, this allows for both
119 in and out of sync delivery of events.
121 * Generic _pull() replaced by _pull_region() so that random access
124 * data passing happens from PAUSED, called the preroll phase. In this
125 state no data is rendered but it is queued in the sinks.
127 * negotiation simplified. Caps are now attached to buffers and travel
128 along with the datastream.
130 * GstBuffer is now subclassable.
132 * Ghostpads now look and feel like real pads.
134 * New Seeking/flushing policy.
136 * Addition of base classes and helper functions in the core to abstract
137 away the harder parts of plugin development.
141 * added Traditional Chinese translation
