General Information 
===================

gstreamermm provides C++ bindings for the GStreamer streaming multimedia
library (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org).  With gstreamermm it is possible to
develop applications that work with multimedia in C++.

gstreamermm is developed over glibmm, libsigc++ and libxml++ and the
functionalities they provide.  This means that, among other things, referencing
and unreferencing of GObjects is handled automatically via glibmm's automatic
pointer class, Glib:RefPtr<>, and libsigc++'s slots are used for callbacks and
signals.

There are several examples, including a media player, in the examples/
directory, that demonstrate how to use the API and there are API docs in the
docs/reference/html directory.  The core plug-ins, such as Gst::Identity and
Gst::FileSrc are also provided along with many of the base plug-ins.

Changes:
=======

Build:
* Optimizations and library robustness
  (Daniel Elstner)
Plugin Generator:
* Added convenience methods for plug-in action signals.  This allows signals
  that are used in the C API by calling them with g_signal_emit() to be used
  conveniently in C++.
  (José Alburquerque)
API:
* CddaBaseSrc:
  - Wrapped add_track() method.
  - Wrapped virtual functions.
* Refined MiniObject so that it is registered in the GType system.
* MixerTrack:
  - Added convenience method has_flags().
* RingBuffer:
  - Wrapped virtual functions.
  - Re-wrote its helper class RingBufferSpec.
* Added StreamVolume interface.
* TaskPool:
  - Wrapped virtual functions.
* VideoSink:
  - Wrapped center_rect() method.
  - Wrapped property_show_preroll_frame().
* Some documentation improvements.
(José Alburquerque)
Fixes:
* Gst::Message[Waring|Error|Info]::parse_debug() segfaults. Bug #602949.
  (kitone)
* Use g_new() instead of new[] if memory will be freed with g_free(). Bug
  #602928. (Carlo Wood)
