-Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.29 "It's a Trap"
+Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.30 "Safety First"
Features of this release
- * improve plugin loading robustness: do not ever unload a plugin after calling into it: should fix mystery crashers during registry loading when a plugin init function returns FALSE (e.g. when some supporting library fails to initialise or a wrapper plugin found no features to wrap and wrongly returned FALSE)
- * configurable memory alignment for GstBuffers
- * add QoS message to inform apps of lost data, dropped frames etc.
- * basesink, basetransform: add support for new QoS message
- * basetransform: accept non-fixed caps suggestions
- * basesrc: fix gst_base_src_new_seamless_segment()
- * GstController fixes and optimisations
- * set thread name for pad tasks on Linux
- * pipeline, bin: fix refcount issue when removing elements during a state change
- * queue2: implement seeking in download mode
- * queue2: implement flushing in download buffering
- * queue2: improve buffer level measurement in download mode
- * fdsrc: allow specifying the size in bytes on the uri
- * build fixes: better checks for uint128_t, inline assembly on OSX, compilation if HAVE_REGISTER_PRINTF_SPECIFIER is undefined, gobject-introspection
- * two symbols were removed that had been exported but never been used or been declared in any header file: gst_element_default_error and gst_element_request_compatible_pad
+ * GLib requirement was bumped to 2.20, automake requirement to 1.10
+ * bin: unlock gst_element_get_state() on error, instead of hanging forever if no timeout is given
+ * clock: fix refcounting bug in gst_clock_set_master
+ * caps: make sure _normalize() is applied on all structures
+ * info: add new TRACE log level and move refcounting there from LOG level
+ * pad: don't check twice for changed caps per push
+ * pad: fix iterator aggregation of all pads in the internal links fallback
+ * tagsetter: protect tagsetter operations with a lock
+ * value: support short fourccs (esp. serialisation/deserialisation)
+ * adapter: fix _try_to_merge_up(); optimize progressive masked scans
+ * basesink: implement percentage position and duration queries
+ * basesink: fix segment query return value
+ * basetransform: add accept_caps vmethod
+ * basetransform: re-evaluate proxy_alloc when reconfigured
+ * basetransform: assume in_size equals out_size if there's no transform_size/get_unit_size vfunc
+ * fdsink, filesink: make sync property work correctly
+ * typefind: make sure buffers' metadata is writable before setting caps on them
+ * queue2: fix merging of ranges
+ * queue2: don't wait for data when EOS
+ * queue2: don't ignore failure to open the temporary file location
+ * tools: make gst-launch print things correctly to stderr/stdout and make --quiet work correctly
+ * introspection: add many more gobject-introspection annotations
+ * xml: serialisation/deserialisation to/from XML has been deprecated, since it's always been broken
+ for all but the most trivial pipelines, and will likely never be fixed
