Release notes for GStreamer libav Plugins 1.0.9 The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new bug-fix release in the 1.x stable series of the core of the GStreamer streaming media framework. The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. 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 and will not affect an existing 0.10.x installation. This module contains plugins based on the libav project, including codecs. Other modules containing plugins are: gst-plugins-base contains a basic set of well-supported plugins gst-plugins-good contains a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred license gst-plugins-ugly contains a set of well-supported plugins, but might pose problems for distributors gst-plugins-bad contains a set of less supported plugins that haven't passed the rigorous quality testing we expect, or are still missing documentation and/or unit tests Features of this release * enable SIMD optimizations on OS/X, improving performance a lot in many cases Bugs fixed in this release * 704442 : avdec_h264: enormous CPU load on decoding on OSX ==== Download ==== You can find source releases of gst-libav in the download directory: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gst-libav/ The git repository and details how to clone it can be found at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-libav/ ==== Homepage ==== The project's website is http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/ ==== Support and Bugs ==== We use GNOME's bugzilla for bug reports and feature requests: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer Please submit patches via bugzilla as well.
