-GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer FFmpeg 0.8.5 "For the better of the world"
+Release notes for GStreamer libav Plug-ins 0.11.92 "Wish You Were Here"
-The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new stable release of the
-FFmpeg-based GStreamer plugin.
+The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
+in the 0.11.x unstable series of the
+GStreamer libav Plug-ins.
+
+
+
+The 0.11.x series is an unstable series targeted at developers and will
+eventually lead up to the stable 1.0 series.
+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.
+
+
+This module contains plug-ins using libraries from the libav project.
+
+
+
+Other modules containing plug-ins are:
+
+
+gst-plugins-base
+contains a basic set of well-supported plug-ins
+gst-plugins-ugly
+contains a set of well-supported plug-ins, but might pose problems for
+ distributors
+gst-plugins-bad
+contains a set of less supported plug-ins that haven't passed the
+ rigorous quality testing we expect
-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.
