Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.25 "Feel the burn" The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release in the 0.10.x stable series of the core of the GStreamer streaming media framework. The 0.10.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.8.x series. It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.8.x series. The 0.10.x series has been reworked for threadsafety. It also features various feature additions and enhancements. This module, gstreamer, only contains core functionality. For actual media playback, you will need other modules. gst-plugins-base contains a basic set of well-supported plug-ins gst-plugins-good contains a set of well-supported plug-ins under our preferred license 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 Features of this release * Improve the byte-reader API * GObject introspection support * Improve clock accuracy on win32 * Optimisations in capabilities checking * Optimisations and fixes in the basetransform base class * new 64-bit scaling utility function variants * Various bug-fixes and improvements (see ChangeLog and bugs list below) Bugs fixed in this release * 583999 : [basetransform] caps refcounting problem causing GST_IS_CAPS assertion failures * 566881 : [GstIndex] support/caching in GstBin * 588472 : [basetransform] problems in reverse-negotiating * 589173 : macros cause spurious semicolon warnings * 589314 : [basetransform] clears GAP flag in passthrough mode * 589524 : gst_base_transform_acceptcaps() could provide more verbose debugging output * 589849 : [segment] Clipping fails to handle start=stop < segment_start correctly * 589991 : [queue] limited error handling might cause pipeline appearing to hang * 590045 : Query position fails when pipeline is paused and format is not time * 590430 : Add support for " album artist " tags * 590841 : configure script check for libxml2 is incorrect * 590919 : gst_util_uint64_scale_int() and friends don't round * 591045 : [basesrc] Leaking GstTask instances * 591318 : ghostpad : core dump : on_src_target_notify called with an invalid ghostpad * 591441 : append mode for filesink * 592209 : [GstPad] Deprecated markers missing in the header for internal links function related things * 592314 : core/tests/examples/streams/ does not link to pthread * 593460 : Broken win32-specific systemclock code * 593719 : regression: segfault when using gstrtpbin and certain video codecs * 594107 : [gstbin] : use of freed message : valgrind Invalid read * 594225 : [API] [bytereader] add _unchecked() variants and inline most common functions * 594990 : [introspection] pkg-config file madness and another bug * 595130 : checks fail * 595133 : gst/gstutils check fails * 595209 : Fix out-of-tree build * 368536 : bin_change_state makes children go through unnecessary state changes API changed in this release - API additions: * gst_caps_can_intersect() * gst_util_uint64_scale_int_round() * gst_util_uint64_scale_int_ceil() * gst_util_uint64_scale_round() * gst_util_uint64_scale_ceil() * gst_iterator_new_single() * gst_byte_reader_skip_unchecked() * gst_byte_reader_peek_*_unchecked() * gst_byte_reader_get_*_unchecked() * gst_byte_reader_{peek,get,dup}_data_unchecked() * gst_byte_reader_get_float*_unchecked() Download You can find source releases of gstreamer in the download directory: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gstreamer/ GStreamer Homepage More details can be found on the project's website: 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 Developers GStreamer is stored in Git, hosted at git.freedesktop.org, and can be cloned from there.
