Major new features and changes
-Noteworthy new features and API
+AV1 video codec support improvements
+
+AV1 is a royalty free next-generation video codec by AOMedia and a free
+alternative to H.265/HEVC.
+
+While supported in earlier versions of GStreamer already, this release
+saw a lot of improvements across the board:
+
+- Support for hardware encoding and decoding via VAAPI/VA, AMF, D3D11,
+ NVCODEC, QSV and Intel MediaSDK. Hardware codecs for AV1 are slowly
+ becoming available in embedded systems and desktop GPUs (AMD, Intel,
+ NVIDIA), and these can now be used via GStreamer.
+
+- New AV1 RTP payloader and depayloader elements.
+
+- New encoder settings in the AOM reference encoder-based av1enc
+ element.
+
+- Various improvements in the AV1 parser and in the MP4/Matroska/WebM
+ muxers/demuxers.
+
+- dav1d and rav1e based software decoder/encoder elements shipped as
+ part of the binaries.
+
+- AV1 parser improvements and various bugfixes all over the place.
+
+Touchscreen event support in Navigation API
+
+The Navigation API supports the sending of key press events and mouse
+events through a GStreamer pipeline. Typically these will be picked up
+by a video sink on which these events happen and then the event is
+transmitted into the pipeline so it can be handled by elements inside
+the pipeline if it wasn’t handled by the application.
+
+This has traditionally been used for DVD menu support, but can also be
+used to forward such inputs to source elements that render a web page
+using a browser engine such as WebKit or Chromium.
+
+This API has now gained support for touchscreen events, and this has
+been implemented in various plugins such as the GTK, Qt, XV, and x11
+video sinks as well as the wpevideosrc element.
+
+GStreamer CUDA integration
+
+- New gst-cuda library
+- integration with D3D11 and NVIDIA dGPU NVMM elements
+- new cudaconvertscale element
+
+GStreamer Direct3D11 integration
+
+- New gst-d3d11 public library
+ - gst-d3d11 library is not integrated with GStreamer documentation
+ system yet. Please refer to the examples
+- d3d11screencapture: Add Windows Graphics Capture API based capture
+ mode, including Win32 application window capturing
+- d3d11videosink and d3d11convert can support flip/rotation and crop
+ meta
+- d3d11videosink: New emit-present property and present signal so that
+ applications can overlay an image on Direct3D11 swapchain’s
+ backbuffer via Direct3D/Direct2D APIs. See also C++ and Rust
+ examples
+- d3d11compositor supports YUV blending/composing without intermediate
+ RGB(A) conversion to improve performance
+- Direct3D11 video decoders are promoted to GST_RANK_PRIMARY or
+ higher, except for the MPEG2 decoder
+
+H.264/H.265 timestamp correction elements
+
+- Muxers are often picky and need proper PTS/DTS timestamps set on the
+ input buffers, but that can be a problem if the encoded input media
+ stream comes from a source that doesn’t provide proper signalling of
+ DTS, such as is often the case for RTP, RTSP and WebRTC streams or
+ Matroska container files. Theoretically parsers should be able to
+ fix this up, but it would probably require fairly invasive changes
+ in the parsers, so two new elements h264timestamper and
+ h265timestamper bridge the gap in the meantime and can reconstruct
+ missing PTS/DTS.
+
+Easy sender timestamp reconstruction for RTP and RTSP
+
+- it was always possible to reconstruct and retrieve the original RTP
+ sender timestamps in GStreamer, but required a fair bit of
+ understanding of the internal mechanisms and the right property
+ configuration and clock setup.
+
+- rtspsrc and rtpjitterbuffer gained a new
+ “add-reference-timestamp-meta” property that if set puts the
+ original absolute reconstructed sender timestamps on the output
+ buffers via a meta. This is particularly useful if the sender is
+ synced to an NTP clock or PTP clock. The original sender timestamps
+ are either based on the RTCP NTP times, NTP RTP header extensions
+ (RFC6051) or RFC7273-style clock signalling.
+
+Qt6 support
+
+- new qml6glsink element for Qt6 similar to the existing Qt5 element.
+ Matching source and overlay elements will hopefully follow in the
+ near future.
+
+OpenGL + Video library enhancements
+
+- Support for new video formats (NV12_4L4, NV12_16L32S, NV12_8L128,
+ NV12_10BE_8L128) and dmabuf import in more formats (Y410, Y212_LE,
+ Y212_BE, Y210, NV21, NV61)
+
+- Improved support for tiled formats with arbitrary tile dimensions,
+ as needed by certain hardware decoders/encoders
+
+- glvideomixer: New “crop-left,”crop-right, “crop-top” and
+ “crop-bottom” pad properties for cropping inputs
+
+- OpenGL support for gst_video_sample_convert():
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+ - Used for video snapshotting and thumbnailing, to convert buffers
+ retrieved from appsinks or sink “last-sample” properties in
+ JPG/PNG thumbnails.
+ - This function can now take samples and buffers backed by GL
+ textures as input and will automatically plug a gldownload
+ element in that case.
+
+High bit-depth support (10, 12, 16 bits per component value) improvements
+
+- compositor can now handle any supported input format and also mix
+ high-bitdepth (10-16 bit) formats (naively)
+
+- videoflip has gained support for higher bit depth formats.
+
+- vp9enc, vp9dec now support 12-bit formats and also 10-bit 4:4:4
+
+WebRTC
+
+- Allow insertion of bandwidth estimation elements e.g. for Google
+ Congestion Control (GCC) support
+
+- Initial support for sending or receiving simulcast streams
+
+- Support for asynchronous host resolution for STUN/TURN servers
+
+- GstWebRTCICE was split into base classes and implementation to make
+ it possible to plug custom ICE implementations
+
+- webrtcsink: batteries-included WebRTC sender (Rust)
+
+- whipsink: WebRTC HTTP ingest (WHIP) to a MediaServer (Rust)
+
+- whepsrc: WebRTC HTTP egress (WHEP) from a MediaServer (Rust)
+
+- Many other improvements and bug fixes
+
+New HLS, DASH and MSS adaptive streaming clients
+
+A new set of “adaptive demuxers” to support HLS, DASH and MSS adaptive
+streaming protocols has been added. They provide improved performance,
+new features and better stream compatibility compared to the previous
+elements. These new elements require a “streams-aware” pipeline such as
+playbin3, uridecodebin3 or urisourcebin.
+
+The previous elements’ design prevented implementing several use-cases
+and fixing long-standing issues. The new elements were re-designed from
+scratch to tackle those:
+
+- Scheduling Only 3 threads are present, regardless of the number of
+ streams selected. One in charge of downloading fragments and
+ manifests, one in charge of outputting parsed data downstream, and
+ one in charge of scheduling. This improves performance, resource
+ usage and latency.
+
+- Better download control The elements now directly control the
+ scheduling and download of manifests and fragments using libsoup
+ directly instead of depending on external elements for downloading.
+
+- Stream selection, only the selected streams are downloaded. This
+ improves bandwith usage. Switching stream is done in such a way to
+ ensure there are no gaps, meaning the new stream will be switched to
+ only once enough data for it has been downloaded.
+
+- Internal parsing, the downloaded streams are parsed internally. This
+ allows the element to fully respect the various specifications and
+ offer accurate buffering, seeking and playback. This is especially
+ important for HLS streams which require parsing for proper
+ positioning of streams.
+
+- Buffering and adaptive rate switching, the new elements handle
+ buffering internally which allows them to have a more accurate
+ visibility of which bandwith variant to switch to.
+
+Playbin3, Decodebin3, UriDecodebin3, Parsebin improvements
+
+The “new” playback elements introduced in 1.18 (playbin3 and its various
+components) have been refactored to allow more use-cases and improve
+performance. They are no longer considered experimental, so applications
+using the legacy playback elements (playbin and (uri)decodebin) can
+migrate to the new components to benefit from these improvements.
+
+- Gapless The “gapless” feature allows files and streams to be
+ fetched, buffered and decoded in order to provide a “gapless”
+ output. This feature has been refactored extensively in the new
+ components:
+ - A single (uri)decodebin3 (and therefore a single set of
+ decoders) is used. This improves memory and cpu usage, since on
+ identical codecs a single decoder will be used.
+ - The “next” stream to play will be pre-rolled “just-in-time”
+ thanks to the buffering improvements in urisourcebin (see below)
+ - This feature is now handled at the uridecodebin3 level.
+ Applications that wish to have a “gapless” stream and process it
+ (instead of just outputting it, for example for transcoding,
+ retransmission, …) can now use uridecodebin3 directly. Note that
+ a streamsynchronizer element is required in that case.
+- Buffering improvements The urisourcebin element is in charge of
+ fetching and (optionally) buffering/downloading the stream. It has
+ been extended and improved:
+ - When the parse-streams property is used (by default in
+ uridecodebin3 and playbin3), compatible streams will be demuxed
+ and parsed (via parsebin) and buffering will be done on the
+ elementary streams. This provides a more accurate handling of
+ buffering. Previously buffering was done on a best-effort basis
+ and was mostly wrong (i.e. downloading more than needed).
+ - Applications can use urisourcebin with this property as a
+ convenient way of getting elementary streams from a given URI.
+ - Elements can handle buffering themselves (such as the new
+ adaptive demuxers) by answering the GST_QUERY_BUFFERING query.
+ In that case urisourcebin will not handle it.
+- Stream Selection Efficient stream selection was previously only
+ possible within decodebin3. The downside is that this meant that
+ upstream elements had to provide all the streams from which to chose
+ from, which is inefficient. With the addition of the
+ GST_QUERY_SELECTABLE query, this can now be handled by elements
+ upstream (i.e. sources)
+ - Elements that can handle stream selection internally (such as
+ the new adaptive demuxer elements) answer that query, and handle
+ the stream selection events themselves.
+ - In this case, decodebin3 will always process all streams that
+ are provided to it.
+- Instant URI switching This new feature allows switching URIs
+ “instantly” in playbin3 (and uridecodebin3) without having to change
+ states. This mimics switching channels on a television.
+ - If compatible, decoders will be re-used, providing lower
+ latency/cpu/memory than by switching states.
+ - This is enabled by setting the instant-uri property to true,
+ setting the URI to switch to immediately, and then disabling the
+ instant-uri property again afterwards.
+- playbin3, decodebin3, uridecodebin3, parsebin, and urisourcebin are
+ no longer experimental
+ - They were originally marked as ‘technology preview’ but have
+ since seen extensive usage in production settings, so are
+ considered ready for general use now.
+
+Fraunhofer AAC audio encoder HE-AAC and AAC-LD profile support
+
+- fdkaacenc:
+ - Support for encoding to HE-AACv1 and HE-AACv2 profile
+ - Support for encoding to AAC Low Delay (LD) profile
+ - Advanced bitrate control options via new “rate-control”,
+ “vbr-preset”, “peak-bitrate”, and “afterburner” properties
+
+RTP rapid synchronization support in the RTP stack (RFC6051)
+
+RTP provides several mechanisms how streams can be synchronized relative
+to each other, and how absolute sender times for RTP packets can be
+obtained. One of these mechanisms is via RTCP, which has the
+disadvantage that the synchronization information is only distributed
+out-of-band and usually some time after the start.
+
+GStreamer’s RTP stack, specifically the rtpbin, rtpsession and
+rtpjitterbuffer elements, now also have support for retrieving and
+sending the same synchronization information in-band via RTP header
+extensions according to RFC6051 (Rapid Synchronisation of RTP Flows).
+Only 64-bit timestamps are supported currently.
+
+This provides per packet synchronization information from the very
+beginning of a stream and allows accurate inter-stream, and (depending
+on setup) inter-device, synchronization at the receiver side.
+
+ONVIF XML Timed Metadata support
+
+The ONVIF standard implemented by various security cameras also
+specifies a format for timed metadata that is transmitted together with
+the audio/video streams, usually over RTSP.
+
+Support for this timed metadata is implemented in the MP4 demuxer now as
+well as the new fragmented MP4 muxer and the new non-fragmented MP4
+muxer from the GStreamer Rust plugins. Additionally, the new onvif
+plugin ‒ which is part of the GStreamer Rust plugins ‒ provides general
+elements for handling the metadata and e.g. overlaying certain parts of
+it over a video stream.
+
+As part of this support for absolute UTC times was also implemented
+according to the requirements of the ONVIF standards in the
+corresponding elements.
+
+MP3 gapless playback support
+
+While MP3 can probably considered a legacy format at this point, a new
+feature was added with this release.
+
+When playing back plain MP3 files, i.e. outside a container format,
+switches between files can now be completely gapless if the required
+metadata is provided inside the file. There is no standardized metadata
+for this, but the LAME MP3 encoder writes metadata that can be parsed by
+the mpegaudioparse element now and forwarded to decoders for ensuring
+removal of padding samples at the front and end of MP3 files.
+
+“force-live” property for audio + video aggregators
+
+This is a quality of life fix for playout and streaming applications
+where it is common to have audio and video mixer elements that should
+operate in live mode from the start and produce output continuously.
+
+Often one would start a pipeline without any inputs hooked up to these
+mixers in the beginning, and up until now there was no way to easily
+force these elements into live mode from the start. One would have to
+add an initial live video or audio test source as dummy input to achieve
+this.
+
+The new “force-live” property makes these audio and video aggregators
+start in live mode without the need for any dummy inputs, which is
+useful for scenarios where inputs are only added after starting the
+pipeline.
+
+This new property should usually be used in connection with the
+“min-upstream-latency” property, i.e. you should always set a non-0
+minimum upstream latency then.
+
+This is now supported in all GstAudioAggregator and GstVideoAggregator
+subclasses such as audiomixer, audiointerleave, compositor,
+glvideomixer, d3d11compositor, etc.
+
+New elements and plugins
+
+- new cudaconvertscale element that can convert and scale in one pass
+
+- new gtkwaylandsink element based on gtksink, but similar to
+ waylandsink and uses Wayland APIs directly instead of rendering with
+ Gtk/Cairo primitives. This approach is only compatible with Gtk3,
+ and like gtksink this element only supports Gtk3.
+
+- new h264timestamper and h265timestamper elements to reconstruct
+ missing pts/dts from inputs that might not provide them such as
+ e.g. RTP/RTSP/WebRTC inputs (see above)
-New elements
+- mfaacdec, mfmp3dec: Windows MediaFoundation AAC and MP3 decoders
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- new msdkav1enc AV1 video encoder element
+
+- new nvcudah264enc, nvcudah265enc, nvd3d11h264enc, and nvd3d11h265enc
+ NVIDIA GPU encoder elements to support zero-copy encoding, via CUDA
+ and Direct3D11 APIs, respectively
+
+- new nvautogpuh264enc and nvautogpuh265enc NVIDIA GPU encoder
+ elements: The auto GPU elements will automatically select a target
+ GPU instance in case multiple NVIDIA desktop GPUs are present, also
+ taking into account the input memory. On Windows CUDA or Direct3D11
+ mode will be determined by the elements automatically as well. Those
+ new elements are useful if target GPU and/or API mode (either CUDA
+ or Direct3D11 in case of Windows) is undeterminable from the encoder
+ point of view at the time when pipeline is configured, and therefore
+ lazy target GPU and/or API selection are required in order to avoid
+ unnecessary memory copy operations.
+
+- new nvav1dec AV1 NVIDIA desktop GPU decoder element
+
+- new qml6glsink element to render video with Qt6
+
+- qsv: New Intel OneVPL/MediaSDK (a.k.a Intel Quick Sync) based
+ decoder and encoder elements, with gst-d3d11 (on Windows) and gst-va
+ (on Linux) integration
+
+ - Support multi-GPU environment, for example, concurrent video
+ encoding using Intel iGPU and dGPU in a single pipeline
+ - H.264 / H.265 / VP9 and JPEG decoders
+ - H.264 / H.265 / VP9 / AV1 / JPEG encoders with dynamic encoding

+ overlay upstream GstVideoOverlayCompositonMeta onto the video
+ stream.
+
+- vulkanshaderspv: performs operations with SPIRV shaders in Vulkan
+
+- win32ipcvideosink, win32ipcvideosrc: new shared memory videosrc/sink
+ elements for Windows
+
+- wicjpegdec, wicpngdec: Windows Imaging Component (WIC) based JPEG
+ and PNG decoder elements.
+
+- Many exciting new Rust elements, see Rust section below
New element features and additions
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- audioconvert: Dithering now uses a slightly slower, less biased PRNG
+ which results in better quality output. Also dithering can now be
+ enabled via the new “dithering-threshold” property for target bit
+ depths of more than 20 bits.
-Plugin and library moves
+- av1enc: Add “keyframe-max-dist” property for controlling max
+ distance between keyframes, as well as “enc-pass”, “keyframe-mode”,
+ “lag-in-frames” and “usage-profile” properties.
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- cccombiner: new “output-padding” property
-- There were no plugin moves or library moves in this cycle.
+- decklink: Add support for 4k DCI, 8k/UHD2 and 8k DCI modes
-Plugin removals
+- dvbsubenc: Support for >SD resolutions is working correctly now.
+
+- fdkaacenc: Add HE-AAC / HE-AACv2 profile support
+
+- glvideomixer: New “crop-left,”crop-right, “crop-top” and
+ “crop-bottom” pad properties for cropping inputs
+
+- gssink: new ‘content-type’ property. Useful when one wants to upload
+ a video as video/mp4 instead of ’video/quicktime` for example.
+
+- jpegparse: Rewritten using the common parser library
+
+- msdk:
+
+ - new msdkav1enc AV1 video encoder element
+ - msdk decoders: Add support for Scaler Format Converter (SFC) on
+ supported Intel platforms for hardware accelerated conversion
+ and scaling
+ - msdk encoders: support import of dmabuf, va memory and D3D11
+ memory
+ - msdk encoders: add properties for low delay bitrate control and
+ max frame sizes for I/P frames
+ - msdkh264enc, msdkh265enc: more properties to control intra
+ refresh
+ - note that on systems with multi GPUs the Windows D3D11
+ integration might only work reliably if the Intel GPU is the
+ primary GPU
+
+- mxfdemux: Add support for Canon XF-HEVC
+
+- openaptx: Support the freeaptx library
+
+- qroverlay:
+
+ - new “qrcode-case-sensitive” property allows encoding case
+ sensitive strings like wifi SSIDs or passwords.
+ - added the ability to pick up data to render from an
+ upstream-provided custom GstQROverlay meta
+
+- qtdemux: Add support for ONVIF XML Timed MetaData and AVC-Intra
+ video
+
+- rfbsrc now supports the uri handler interface, so applications can
+ use RFB/VNC sources in uridecodebin(3) and playbin, with
+ e.g. rfb://:password@10.1.2.3:5903?shared=1
+
+- rtponviftimestamp: Add support for using reference timestamps
+
+- rtpvp9depay now has the same keyframe-related properties as
+ rtpvp8depay and rtph264depay: “request-keyframe” and
+ “wait-for-keyframe”
+
+- rtspsrc: Various RTSP servers are using invalid URL operations for
+ constructing the control URL. Until GStreamer 1.16 these worked
+ correctly because GStreamer was just appending strings itself to
+ construct the control URL, but starting version 1.18 the correct URL
+ operations were used. With GStreamer 1.22, rtspsrc now first tries
+ with the correct control URL and if that fails it will retry with
+ the wrongly constructed control URL to restore support for such
+ servers.
+
+- rtspsrc and rtpjitterbuffer gained a new
+ “add-reference-timestamp-meta” property that makes them put the
+ unmodified original sender timestamp on output buffers for NTP or
+ PTP clock synced senders
+
+- srtsrc, srtsink: new “auto-reconnect” property to make it possible
+ to disable automatic reconnects (in caller mode) and make the
+ elements post an error immediately instead; also stats improvements
-The following elements or plugins have been removed:
+- srtsrc: new “keep-listening” property to avoid EOS on disconnect and
+ keep the source running while it waits for a new connection.
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- videocodectestsink: added YUV 4:2:2 support
-- The ofa audio fingerprinting plugin has been removed. The MusicIP
- database has been defunct for years so this plugin is likely neither
- useful nor used by anyone.
+- wasapi2src: Add support for process loopback capture
-- The mms plugin containing mmssrc has been removed. It seems unlikely
- anyone still needs this or that there are even any streams left out
- there. The MMS protocol was deprecated in 2003 (in favour of RTSP)
- and support for it was dropped with Microsoft Media Services 2008,
- and Windows Media Player apparently also does not support it any
- more.
+- wpesrc: Add support for modifiers in key/touch/pointer events
+
+Plugin and library moves
+
+- The xingmux plugin has been moved from gst-plugins-ugly into
+ gst-plugins-good.
+
+- The various Windows directshow plugins in gst-plugins-bad have been
+ unified into a single directshow plugin.
+
+Plugin removals
+
+- The dxgiscreencapsrc element has been removed, use
+ d3d11screencapturesrc instead
Miscellaneous API additions
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- GST_AUDIO_FORMAT_INFO_IS_VALID_RAW() and
+ GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_INFO_IS_VALID_RAW() can be used to check if a
+ GstAudioFormatInfo or GstVideoFormatInfo has been initialised to a
+ valid raw format.
+
+- Video SEI meta: new GstVideoSEIUserDataUnregisteredMeta to carry
+ H.264 and H.265 metadata from SEI User Data Unregistered messages.
+
+- vulkan: Expose gst_vulkan_result_to_string()
Miscellaneous performance, latency and memory optimisations
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- liborc 0.4.33 adds support for aarch64 (64-bit ARM) architecture
+ (not enabled by default on Windows yet though) and improvements for
+ 32-bit ARM and should greatly enhance performance for certain
+ operations that use ORC.
+
+- as always there have been plenty of performance, latency and memory
+ optimisations all over the place.
Miscellaneous other changes and enhancements
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- the audio/video decoder base classes will not consider decoding
+ errors a hard error by default anymore but will continue trying to
+ decode. Previously more than 10 consecutive errors were considered a
+ hard error but this caused various partially broken streams to fail.
+ The threshold is configurable via the “max-errors” property.
+
+- compatibility of the GStreamer PTP clock implementation with
+ different PTP server implementations was improved, and
+ synchronization is achieved successfully in various scenarios that
+ failed before.
Tracing framework and debugging improvements
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+New tracers
+
+- buffer-lateness: Records lateness of buffers and the reported
+ latency for each pad in a CSV file. Comes with a script for
+ visualisation.
+
+- pipeline-snapshot: Creates a .dot file of all pipelines in the
+ application whenever requested via SIGUSR1 (on UNIX systems)
+
+- queue-levels: Records queue levels for each queue in a CSV file.
+ Comes with a script for visualisation.
+
+Debug logging system improvements
+
+- new log macros GST_LOG_ID, GST_DEBUG_ID, GST_INFO_ID,
+ GST_WARNING_ID, GST_ERROR_ID, and GST_TRACE_ID allow passing a
+ string identifier instead of a GObject. This makes it easier to log
+ non-gobject-based items and also has performance benefits.
Tools
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- gst-play-1.0 gained a --no-position command line option to suppress
+ position/duration queries, which can be useful to reduce debug log
+ noise.
+
+GStreamer FFMPEG wrapper
+
+- Fixed bitrate management and timestamp inaccuracies for video
+ encoders
+
+- Fix synchronization issues and errors created by the (wrong)
+ forwarding of upstream segment events by ffmpeg demuxers.
+
+- Clipping meta support for gapless mp3 playback
GStreamer RTSP server
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Add RFC5576 Source-specific media attribute to the SDP media for
+ signalling the CNAME
+
+- Add support for adjusting request response on pipeline errors
+
+ - Give the application the possibility to adjust the error code
+ when responding to a request. For that purpose the pipeline’s
+ bus messages are emitted to subscribers through a
+ “handle-message” signal. The subscribers can then check those
+ messages for errors and adjust the response error code by
+ overriding the virtual method
+ GstRTSPClientClass::adjust_error_code().
+
+- Add gst_rtsp_context_set_token() method to make it possible to set
+ the RTSPToken on some RTSPContext from bindings such as the Python
+ bindings.
+
+- rtspclientsink gained a “publish-clock-mode” property to configure
+ whether the pipeline clock should be published according to RFC7273
+ (RTP Clock Source Signalling), similar to the same API on
+ GstRTSPMedia.
+
+GStreamer VA-API support
+
+- Development activity has shifted towards the new va plugin, with
+ gstreamer-vaapi now basically in maintenance-only mode. Most of the
+ below refers to the va plugin (not gstreamer-vaapi).

+
+- Add an action type to verify currently configured pad caps
+
+- Add a way to run checks from any thread after executing a ‘wait’
+ action. This is useful when waiting on a signal and want to check
+ the value of a property right when it is emited for example.
GStreamer Python Bindings
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Add a Gst.init_python() function to be called from plugins which
+ will initialise everything needed for the GStreamer Python bindings
+ but not call Gst.init() again since this will have been called
+ already.
+
+- Add support for the GstURIHandlerInterface that allows elements to
+ advertise what URI protocols they support.
GStreamer C# Bindings
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Fix AppSrc and AppSink constructors
+
+- The C# bindings have yet to be updated to include new 1.22 API,
+ which requires improvements in various places in the bindings /
+ binding generator stack. See issue #1718 in GitLab for more
+ information and to track progress.
GStreamer Rust Bindings and Rust Plugins
The GStreamer Rust bindings are released separately with a different
release cadence that’s tied to gtk-rs, but the latest release has
-already been updated for the upcoming new GStreamer 1.20 API.
+already been updated for the new GStreamer 1.22 API. Check the bindings
+release notes for details of the changes since 0.18, which was released
+around GStreamer 1.20.

- between each other to reduce the number of threads
-- rsfilesrc/rsfilesink: File source/sink elements as replacements for
- the existing filesrc/filesink elements
+has also seen lots of activity with many new elements and plugins. A
+list of all Rust plugins and elements provided with the 0.9 release can
+be found in the repository.
+
+- 33% of GStreamer commits are now in Rust (bindings + plugins), and
+ the Rust plugins module is also where most of the new plugins are
+ added these days.
+
+- The Rust plugins are now shipped as part of the Windows MSVC + macOS
+ binary packages. See below for the list of shipped plugins and the
+ status of Rust support in cerbero.
+
+- The Rust plugins are also part of the documentation on the GStreamer
+ website now.
+
+- Rust plugins can be used from any programming language. To the
+ outside they look just like a plugin written in C or C++.
+
+New Rust plugins and elements
+
+- rtpav1pay / rtpav1depay: RTP (de)payloader for the AV1 video codec
+- gtk4paintablesink: a GTK4 video sink that provides a GdkPaintable

+ MP4/ISOBMFF/CMAF muxer for generating e.g. DASH/HLS media fragments.
+- isomp4mux, onvifmp4mux: New non-fragmented, normal MP4 muxer.
+
+Both plugins provides elements that replace the existing qtmux/mp4mux
+element from gst-plugins-good. While not feature-equivalent yet, the new
+codebase and using separate elements for the fragment and non-fragmented
+case allows for easier extensability in the future.
+
+Cerbero Rust support
+
+- Starting this release, cerbero has support for building and shipping
+ Rust code on Linux, Windows (MSVC) and macOS. The Windows (MSVC) and
+ macOS binaries also ship the GStreamer Rust plugins in this release.
+ Only dynamic plugins are built and shipped currently.
+

Build and Dependencies
-- Meson 0.59 or newer is required to build GStreamer now.
+- meson 0.62 or newer is required
-- FIXME: this section will be filled in in due course
+- GLib >= 2.62 is now required (but GLib >= 2.64 is strongly
+ recommended)
-Explicit opt-in required for build of certain plugins with (A)GPL dependencies
+- libnice >= 0.1.21 is now required and contains important fixes for
+ GStreamer’s WebRTC stack.
-Some plugins have GPL- or AGPL-licensed dependencies and those plugins
-will no longer be built by default unless you have explicitly opted in
-to allow (A)GPL-licensed dependencies by passing -Dgpl=enabled to Meson,
-even if the required dependencies are available.
+- liborc >= 0.4.33 is recommended for 64-bit ARM support and 32-bit
+ ARM improvements
-See Building plugins with (A)GPL-licensed dependencies for more details
-and a non-exhaustive list of plugins affected.
+- onnx: OnnxRT >= 1.13.1 is now required
-gst-build: replaced by Monorepo
+- openaptx: can now be built against libfreeaptx
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- opencv: allow building against any 4.x version
-- FIXME: describe + link to Monorepo FAQ
+- shout: libshout >= 2.4.3 is now required
+
+- gstreamer-vaapi’s Meson build options have been switched from a
+ custom combo type (yes/no/auto) to the built-in Meson feature type
+ (enabled/disabled/auto)
+
+- The GStreamer Rust plugins module gst-plugins-rs is now considered
+ an essential part of the GStreamer plugin offering and packagers and
+ distributors are strongly encouraged to package and ship those
+ plugins alongside the existing plugin modules.
+
+- we now make use of Meson’s install tags feature which allows
+ selective installation of installl components and might be useful
+ for packagers.
+
+Monorepo build (gst-build)
+
+- new “orc-source” build option to allow build against a
+ system-installed liborc instead of forcing the use of orc as a
+ subproject.
+
+- GStreamer command line tools can now be linked to the gstreamer-full
+ library if it’s built
Cerbero
Cerbero is a meta build system used to build GStreamer plus dependencies
on platforms where dependencies are not readily available, such as
-Windows, Android, iOS and macOS.
+Windows, Android, iOS, and macOS.
General improvements
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Rust support was added for all support configurations, controlled by
+ the rust variant; see above for more details
+- All pkgconfig files are now reliably relocatable without requiring
+ pkg-config --define-prefix. This also fixes statically linking with
+ GStreamer plugins using the corresponding pkgconfig files.
+- New documentation on how to build a custom GStreamer repository
+ using Cerbero, please see the README
+- HTTPS certificate checking is enabled for downloads on all platforms
+ now
+- Fetching now automatically retries on error for robustness against
+ transient errors
+- Support for building the new Qt6 plugin was added
+- pkgconfig files for various recipes were fixed
+- Several recipes were updated to newer versions
+- New plugins: adaptivedemux2 aes codectimestamper dav1d
+- New libraries: cuda webrtcnice
macOS / iOS
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Added support for running Cerbero on ARM64 macOS
+- GStreamer.framework and all libraries in it are now relocatable,
+ which means they use LC_RPATH entries to find dependencies instead
+ of using an absolute path. If you link to GStreamer using the
+ pkgconfig files, no action is necessary. However, if you use the
+ framework directly or link to the libraries inside the framework by
+ hand, then you need to pass -Wl,-rpath,<path_to_libdir> to the
+ linker.
+- Apple bitcode support was dropped, since Apple has deprecated it
+- macOS installer now correctly advertises support for both x86_64 and
+ arm64
+- macOS framework now ships the gst-rtsp-server-1.0 library
+- Various fixes were made to make static linking to gstreamer
+ libraries and plugins work correctly on macOS
+- When statically linking to the applemedia plugin using Xcode 13, you
+ will need to pass -fno-objc-msgsend-selector-stubs which works
+ around a backwards-incompatible change in Xcode 14. This is not
+ required for the rest of GStreamer at present, but will be in the
+ future.
+- macOS installer now shows the GStreamer logo correctly
Windows
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- MSVC is now required by default on Windows, and the Visual Studio
+ variant is enabled by default
+ - To build with MinGW, use the mingw variant
+- Visual Studio props files were updated for newer Visual Studio
+ versions
+- Visual Studio 2015 support was dropped
+- MSYS2 is now supported as the base instead of MSYS. Please see the
+ README for more details. Some advantages include:
+ - Faster build times, since parallel make works
+ - Faster bootstrap, since some tools are provided by MSYS2
+ - Other speed-ups due to using MSYS2 tools instead of MSYS
+- Faster download by using powershell instead of hand-rolled Python
+ code
+- Many recipes were ported from Autotools to Meson, speeding up the
+ build
+- Universal Windows Platform is no longer supported, and binaries are
+ no longer shipped for it
+- New documentation on how to force a specific Visual Studio
+ installation in Cerbero, please see the README
+- New plugins: qsv wavpack directshow amfcodec wic win32ipc
+- New libraries: d3d11
Windows MSI installer
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Universal Windows Platform prebuilt binaries are no longer available
Linux
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Various fixes for RHEL/CentOS 7 support
+- Added support for running on Linux ARM64
Android
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Android support now requires Android API version 21 (Lollipop)
+- Support for Android Gradle plugin 7.2
Platform-specific changes and improvements
Android
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Android SDK 21 is required now as minimum SDK version
+
+- androidmedia: Add H.265 / HEVC video encoder mapping
-macOS and iOS
+- Implement JNI_OnLoad() to register static plugins etc. automatically
+ in case GStreamer is loaded from Java using System.loadLibrary(),
+ which is also useful for the gst-full deployment scenario.
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+Apple macOS and iOS
+
+- The GLib version shipped with the GStreamer binaries does not
+ initialize an NSApp and does not run a NSRunLoop on the main thread
+ anymore. This was a custom GLib patch and caused it to behave
+ different from the GLib shipped by Homebrew or anybody else.
+
+ The change was originally introduced because various macOS APIs
+ require a NSRunLoop to run on the main thread to function correctly
+ but as this change will never get merged into GLib and it was
+ reverted for 1.22. Applications that relied on this behaviour should
+ move to the new gst_macos_main() function, which also does not
+ require the usage of a GMainLoop.
+
+ See e.g. gst-play.c for an example for the usage of
+ gst_macos_main().
+
+- GStreamer.framework and all libraries in it are now relocatable,
+ which means they use LC_RPATH entries to find dependencies instead
+ of using an absolute path. If you link to GStreamer using the
+ pkgconfig files, no action is necessary. However, if you use the
+ framework directly or link to the libraries inside the framework by
+ hand, then you need to pass -Wl,-rpath,<path_to_libdir> to the
+ linker.
+
+- avfvideosrc: Allow specifying crop coordinates during screen capture
+
+- vtenc, vtdec: H.265 / HEVC video encoding + decoding support
+
+- osxaudiosrc: Support a device as both input and output
+
+ - osxaudiodeviceprovider now probes devices more than once to
+ determine if the device can function as both an input AND and
+ output device. Previously, if the device provider detected that
+ a device had any output capabilities, it was treated solely as
+ an Audio/Sink. This caused issues for devices that have both
+ input and output capabilities (for example, USB interfaces for
+ professional audio have both input and output channels). Such
+ devicesare now listed as both an Audio/Sink as well as an
+ Audio/Source.
+
+- osxaudio: support hidden devices on macOS
+
+ - These are devices that will not be shown in the macOS UIs and
+ that cannot be retrieved without having the specific UID of the
+ hidden device. There are cases when you might want to have a
+ hidden device, for example when having a virtual speaker that
+ forwards the data to a virtual hidden input device from which
+ you can then grab the audio. The blackhole project supports
+ these hidden devices and this change provides a way that if the
+ device id is a hidden device it will use it instead of checkinf
+ the hardware list of devices to understand if the device is
+ valid.
Windows
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- win32ipcvideosink, win32ipcvideosrc: new shared memory videosrc/sink
+ elements
+
+- wasapi2: Add support for process loopback capture for a specified
+ PID (requires Windows 11/Windows Server 2022)
+
+- The Windows universal UWP build is currently non-functional and will
+ need updating after the recent GLib upgrade. It is unclear if anyone
+ is using these binaries, so if you are please make yourself known.
+
+- wicjpegdec, wicpngdec: Windows Imaging Component (WIC) based JPEG
+ and PNG decoder elements.
+
+- mfaacdec, mfmp3dec: Windows MediaFoundation AAC and MP3 decoders
+
+- The uninstalled development environment supports PowerShell 7 now
Linux
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- Improved design for DMA buffer sharing and modifier handling for
+ hardware-accelerated video decoders/encoders/filters and
+ capture/rendering on Linux and Linux-like system.
+
+- kmssink
+
+ - new “fd” property which allows an application to provide their
+ own opened DRM device fd handle to kmssink. That way an
+ application can lease multiple fd’s from a DRM master to display
+ on different CRTC outputs at the same time with multiple kmssink
+ instances, for example.
+ - new “skip-vsync” property to achieve full framerate with legacy
+ emulation in drivers.
+ - HDR10 infoframe support
+
+- va plugin and gstreamer-vaapi improvements (see above)
+
+- waylandsink: Add “rotate-method” property and “render-rectangle”
+ property
+
+- new gtkwaylandsink element based on gtksink, but similar to
+ waylandsink and uses Wayland APIs directly instead of rendering with
+ Gtk/Cairo primitives. This approach is only compatible with Gtk3,
+ and like gtksink this element only supports Gtk3.
Documentation improvements
-- this section will be filled in in due course
+- The GStreamer Rust plugins are now included and documented in the
+ plugin documentation.
Possibly Breaking Changes
-- FIXME: this section will be filled in in due course
-- MPEG-TS SCTE-35 API changes (FIXME: flesh out)
-- gst_parse_launch() and friends now error out on non-existing
- properties on top-level bins where they would silently fail and
- ignore those before.
-- playbin and uridecodebin now emit the source-setup signal before the
- element is added to the bin and linked so that the source element is
- already configured before any scheduling query comes in, which is
- useful for elements such as appsrc or giostreamsrc. (Merge Request)
+- the Opus audio RTP payloader and depayloader no longer accept the
+ lower case encoding-format=multiopus but instead produce and accept
+ only the upper case variant encoding-format=MULTIOPUS, since those
+ should always be upper case in GStreamer (caps fields are always
+ case sensitive). This should hopefully only affect applications
+ where RTP caps are set manually and multi-channel audio (>= 3
+ channels) is used.
+
+- wpesrc: the URI handler protocols changed from wpe:// and web:// to
+ web+http://, web+https://, and web+file:// which means URIs are RFC
+ 3986 compliant and the source can simply strip the prefix from the
+ protocol.
+
+- The Windows screen capture element dxgiscreencapsrc has been
+ removed, please use d3d11screencapturesrc instead.
+
+- On Android the minimum supported Android API version is now version
+ 21 and has been increased from 16.
+
+- On macOS, the GLib version shipped with the GStreamer binaries will
+ no longer initialize an NSApp or run an NSRunLoop on the main
+ thread. See macOS/iOS section above for details.
+
+- decklink: The decklink plugin is now using the 12.2.2 version of the
+ SDK and will not work with drivers older than version 12.
+
+- On iOS Apple Bitcode support was removed from the binaries. This
+ feature is deprecated since XCode 14 and not used on the App Store
+ anymore.
+
+- The MP4/Matroska/WebM muxers now require the “stream-format” to be
+ provided as part of the AV1 caps as only the original “obu-stream”
+ format is supported in these containers and not the “annexb” format.
