-Release notes for GStreamer Good Plugins 1.0.0
-The GStreamer project is pleased to announce the very first release of the
-new API and ABI-stable 1.x series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.
+Release notes for GStreamer Good Plugins 1.0.1
-The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. It is not API or ABI
-compatible with the 0.10.x series. It can, however, be installed in parallel
-with the 0.10.x series and will not affect an existing 0.10.x installation.
-Major improvements include: more flexible memory handling; extensible and
-negotiable metadata for buffers; caps negotiation and renegotiation mechanisms,
-decoupled from buffer allocation; improved caps renegotiation; automatic
-re-sending of state for dynamic pipelines; reworked and more fine-grained pad
-probing; simpler and more descriptive audio and video caps; more efficient
-allocation of buffers, events and other mini objects; improved timestamp
-handling; support for gobject-inspection-based language bindings; countless
-other improvements.
+The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
+in the 1.x stable series of the
+core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
-Most of these changes involve the GStreamer plugin API. The application API
-has changed comparatively little, and most applications should be fairly easy
-to port to the new API. There is a porting guide available.
-The GStreamer team would like to thank everyone who helped bring this release
-about, whether by submitting patches, reporting bugs, testing, sponsoring
-development, attending hackfests, or simply supplying moral support.
+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 is the end of a long development process, but also the beginning of
-one. This release does not mark the pinnacle of perfection, but the point
-where the team is content with the API and stability and quality of the code
-base in general, especially compared to the old 0.10 series.
-There will be bugs to fix, and starting from this release there will be
-distinct bug-fixing and feature development cycles, with the goal of getting
-bug-fixes out quicker and unencumbered by other more risky changes. See

-
-for a tentative road map and possible schedule.

-=== Module
"Such ingratitude. After all the times I've saved your life."
+
A collection of plugins you'd want to have right next to you on the
battlefield. Shooting sharp and making no mistakes, these plugins have it
-all: good looks, good code, and good licensing. Documented and dressed up
-in tests. If you're looking for a role model to base your own plugin on,

+in tests. If you're looking for a role model to base your own plugin on,
here it is.

If you find a plot hole or a badly lip-synced line of code in them,
let us know - it is a matter of honour for us to ensure Blondie doesn't look
like he's been walking 100 miles through the desert without water.
-This module contains a set of plugins that we consider to have good quality
-code, correct functionality, our preferred license (LGPL for the plugin code,
-LGPL or LGPL-compatible for the supporting library).

We believe distributors can safely ship these plugins.

People writing elements should base their code on these elements.

Other modules containing plugins are:
- gst-plugins-base : a basic set of well-supported plugins
- gst-plugins-ugly : a set of well-supported plugins, but might pose problems
- for distributors
- gst-plugins-bad : a set of less supported plugins that haven't passed the
- rigorous quality testing we expect
- gst-libav : a set of codecs plugins based on libav (formerly gst-ffmpeg)
