This is GStreamer gst-plugins-base 1.16.1.

The GStreamer team is pleased to announce another bug-fix release in the

stable 1.x API series of your favourite cross-platform multimedia framework!

The 1.16 release series adds new features on top of the 1.14 series and is

part of the API and ABI-stable 1.x release series of the GStreamer multimedia

framework.

Full release notes will one day be found at:

  https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.16/

Binaries for Android, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows will usually be provided

shortly after the release.

This module will not be very useful by itself and should be used in conjunction

with other GStreamer modules for a complete multimedia experience.

 - gstreamer: provides the core GStreamer libraries and some generic plugins

 - gst-plugins-base: a basic set of well-supported plugins and additional

                     media-specific GStreamer helper libraries for audio,

                     video, rtsp, rtp, tags, OpenGL, etc.

 - gst-plugins-good: a set of well-supported plugins under our preferred

                     license

 - gst-plugins-ugly: a set of well-supported plugins which might pose

                     problems for distributors

 - gst-plugins-bad: a set of plugins of varying quality that have not made

                    their way into one of core/base/good/ugly yet, for one

                    reason or another. Many of these are are production quality

                    elements, but may still be missing documentation or unit

                    tests; others haven't passed the rigorous quality testing

                    we expect yet.

 - gst-libav: a set of codecs plugins based on the ffmpeg library. This is

                    where you can find audio and video decoders and encoders

                    for a wide variety of formats including H.264, AAC, etc.

 - gstreamer-vaapi: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding using

                    VA-API on Linux. Primarily for Intel graphics hardware.

 - gst-omx: hardware-accelerated video decoding and encoding, primarily for

                    embedded Linux systems that provide an OpenMax

                    implementation layer such as the Raspberry Pi.

 - gst-rtsp-server: library to serve files or streaming pipelines via RTSP

 - gst-editing-services: library an plugins for non-linear editing
