-GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer FFmpeg 0.8.2 "Titan Shifting Gears"
-
+Release notes for GStreamer libav Plugins 1.4.0
+
+
+The GStreamer team is pleased to announce the first release of
+the stable 1.4 release series. The 1.4 release series is adding new
+features on top of the 1.0 and 1.2 series and is part of the API and
+ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.
+
+
+
+Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows are provided together
+with this release.
+
+
+
+The stable 1.4 release series is API and ABI compatible with 1.0.x,
+1.2.x and any other 1.x release series in the future. Compared to 1.2.x
+it contains some new features and more intrusive changes that were
+considered too risky as a bugfix.
+
+
-The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new stable release of the
-FFmpeg-based GStreamer plugin.
+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
-This module is separated from GStreamer Plugins for easier maintenance
-and decoupled release cycles.
-Our CVS contains both the patched source code to FFmpeg, as well as the
-set of patches against upstream CVS, so we can send patches upstream
-regularly from our modifications.
