what is it?
===========
Take photos and videos with your webcam, with fun graphical effects

what's changed in 2.91.91?
=========================
  - use camerabin for taking photos and videos
  - Migrated from libunique to GtkApplication
  - Ported to GTK+ 3.x
  - build: Update autotools configuration
  - cheese-camera: Unsetting preview-caps after photo
    After taking a photo to pixbuf, we set preview-caps to NULL so regular
    photo doesn't send the preview message.
  - cheese-camera: Fixing take_photo_pixbuf
    Method cheese_camera_take_photo_pixbuf was not working. Now it is
    implemented using camerabin's features. We set preview-caps in camerabin
    and get the buffer for the photo via message on the bus.
    Signals are now only emitted if the capture was successful.
  - cheese-camera: Set video recording options
    Set encoding and multiplexing options.
  - svg overlay effects can now be added
  - cheese-camera: Set filter-caps property
    Set filter-caps property to avoid camerabin default of video/x-raw-yuv
    format=(fourcc)I420.
  - cheese-camera: Enabling source color conversion
    Setting the flag to enable color conversion on video source. Flags names
    were also redefined to allow code readability.
  - cheese-camera: Setting resolution in camerabin
    Cheese was using a capsfilter after video source to configure the
    desired resolution for pictures and video. We now use the camerabin
    signal set-video-resolution-fps to set desired resolution.
  - cheese-camera: Removing height and width defaults
    Camerabin has video-capture defaults that can cause not-negotiated
    errors or set resolution to values that are not the requested by the
    user. Setting them to zero we allow the resolution to be negotiated.
  - cheese-camera: Creating a separate effects_preview_bin
    Create a effects_preview_bin that will hold all elements related to
    effects live preview. This bin is added to video_filter_bin, the same
    bin that contained those elements directly before.
  - cheese-camera: Use camerabin as pipeline base
    Changed Cheese-Camera to use camerabin as its base. Camerabin implements
    view-finder, image capture and video recording.
  - Add gobject introspection support to build system
  - configure.ac: Changing required versions
    Cheese works with older version of clutter, gtk, gdk and
    libgnomedesktop.
  - cheese-window: Fix vala syntax problem
    Cheese wasn't compiled by latest java because of this array
    construction. Changing it to a proper array we avoid the compiling
    problem. Fixes bug #639276.
