-Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.20 "You Crazy Diamond"
+Release notes for GStreamer 0.10.32 "Take Me to the Bonus Level"
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.
Features of this release
- * Add the Presets interface
- * Use the binary registry by default
- * Deprecate gst_element_get_pad and don't use it anywhere any more.
- * Reverse playback fixes
- * API to get missing element messages from parse_launch parsing.
- * Fixes in latency calculations
- * BaseTransform negotiation fixes
- * New Buffering query and messages
- * Fix multiqueue deadlocks when changing limits
- * Remove pre-generated parser hacks and require newer flex/bison
- * Use GSlice in more places
- * Use static strings in property declarations everywhere to save memory allocations
- * Fix unaligned memory accesses with the binary registry and add CRC checks
- * Lots of other bug fixes
+ * GLib requirement is now >= 2.22
+ * New core element: valve (moved from -bad)
+ * New core element: input-selector (N.B. without "select-all" property, use fsfunnel instead) (moved from -bad)
+ * New core element: output-selector (with different negotiation behaviour by default, set pad-negotiation-mode=active for previous behaviour) (moved from -bad)
+ * Performance improvements for many heavily-used code paths: GstPad, GstPoll, GstClock, GstTask, basesink, basesrc, queue2, multiqueue (use atomic ops make many code-paths
+ * gobject-introspection: add annotations for most core API
+ * clock: make sync clock wait lockfree
+ * fdsrc/fdsink: reenable on MSVC
+ * registry: fix GStatBuf definition for win32 when building against older glib (fixes unnecessary rescanning of plugins at start-up)
+ * element: add a more flexible way to get request pads from elements
+ * multiqueue: return upon input when already eos
+ * object: fix creation of default name (when creating more than 100000 elements)
+ * pluginloader: fix hangs on OSX
+ * poll: fixes for (p)select backend (used e.g. on OSX)
+ * poll: refactor and make more lockfree; fixes for win32 and OSX (pselect backend)
+ * registry: don't replace valid existing plugins by blacklisted ones
+ * tags: don't produce duplicated entries when merging same value twice
+ * basesink: preroll fixes for async=false case
+ * basesink: rework position reporting code
+ * basetransform: handle downstream giving a buffer with new caps but invalid size
