+This is GStreamer gst-plugins-base 1.17.2.
-Release notes for GStreamer Base Plug-ins 0.11.90 "Golden bells! What a world of happiness their harmony foretells!"
-
+GStreamer 1.17 is the development branch leading up to the next major
+stable version which will be 1.18.
+The 1.17 development series adds new features on top of the 1.16 series and is
+part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia
+framework.
-The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
-in the 0.11.x unstable series of the
-GStreamer Base Plug-ins.
+Full release notes will one day be found at:
+ https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.18/
-The 0.11.x series is an unstable series targeted at developers.
-It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.10.x series.
-It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.10.x series.
+Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will usually be provided
+shortly after the release.
+This module will not be very useful by itself and should be used in conjunction
+with other GStreamer modules for a complete multimedia experience.
+ - gstreamer: provides the core GStreamer libraries and some generic plugins
-This module contains a set of reference plugins, base classes for other
-plugins, and helper libraries.
+ - gst-plugins-base: a basic set of well-supported plugins and additional
+ media-specific GStreamer helper libraries for audio,
+ video, rtsp, rtp, tags, OpenGL, etc.
-This module is kept up-to-date together with the core developments. Element
-writers should look at the elements in this module as a reference for
-their development.
+ - gst-plugins-good: a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred
+ license
-This module contains elements for, among others:
+ - gst-plugins-ugly: a set of well-supported plugins which might pose
+ problems for distributors
- device plugins: x(v)imagesink, alsa, v4lsrc, cdparanoia
- containers: ogg
- codecs: vorbis, theora
- text: textoverlay, subparse
- sources: audiotestsrc, videotestsrc, gnomevfssrc, giosrc
- network: tcp
- typefind functions
- audio processing: audioconvert, adder, audiorate, audioresample, volume
- visualisation: libvisual
- video processing: ffmpegcolorspace
- aggregate elements: uridecodebin, playbin2, decodebin2, decodebin, playbin, encodebin
- libraries: app, audio, cdda, fft, interfaces, netbuffer, pbutils, riff, rtp, rtsp, sdp, tag, video
+ - gst-plugins-bad: a set of plugins of varying quality that have not made
+ their way into one of core/base/good/ugly yet, for one
+ reason or another. Many of these are are production quality
+ elements, but may still be missing documentation or unit
+ tests; others haven't passed the rigorous quality testing
+ we expect yet.
+ - gst-libav: a set of codecs plugins based on the ffmpeg library. This is
+ where you can find audio and video decoders and encoders
+ for a wide variety of formats including H.264, AAC, etc.
-Other modules containing plug-ins are:
+ - gstreamer-vaapi: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding using
+ VA-API on Linux. Primarily for Intel graphics hardware.
+ - gst-omx: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding, primarily for
+ embedded Linux systems that provide an OpenMax
+ implementation layer such as the Raspberry Pi.
