+This is GStreamer Base Plug-ins 0.10.30, "Difficult Birth"
+
+Changes since 0.10.29:
+
+      * Use Orc (Optimized Inner Loops Runtime Compiler) for SIMD and
+        other optimisations, and remove liboil dependency. The main goal
+        for this release was to make the transition from liboil to liborc.
+        Performance improvements should not be expected and will be the
+        focus of future versions. liborc is an optional dependency for
+        the time being, to make it possible to test and develop the very
+        latest GStreamer versions on systems that don't have orc yet.
+        However, without orc slow unoptimised backup code will be used
+        for many performance critical code paths. Distributors are urged
+        to package and ship the latest version of liborc and compile
+        GStreamer modules with --enable-orc. Please do not distribute
+        GStreamer packages that are not orc enabled. More information on
+        the orc integration can be found in the docs/design/ directory.

+      * playbin2: set the subtitle encoding on the decodebins again
+      * playsink: also expose "convert-frame" action signal and "frame" property in playsink
+      * playsink: reconfigure the video chain correctly when switching from a subtitle to a non-subtitle file
+      * playsink: Don't fail if subtitles are used but only audio is available and no visualizations
