-GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer FFmpeg 0.8.2 "Titan Shifting Gears"
-
+The GStreamer team is thrilled to announce a new major feature release in the
+stable 1.0 API series of your favourite cross-platform multimedia framework!
-The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new stable release of the
-FFmpeg-based GStreamer plugin.
+As always, this release is again packed with new features, bug fixes and
+other improvements.
+The 1.16 release series adds new features on top of the 1.14 series and is
+part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia
+framework.
-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.
+Full release notes will one day be found at:
-
-Features of this release

- * codecs for most popular formats

+shortly after the release.
