“GStreamer ‘Slipstream’ 0.1.0 is a streaming-media framework
which allows developers to construct arbitrary graph of filters to
process media in just about any way you can think of. A long list
of cool features and a huge (and growing) selection of plugins
makes it able to play anything from mp3 files to DVD and DiVX 😉
movies, out of the box.

We’re pleased to announce the availability of version 0.1.0
(dubbed “Slipstream”) of the GStreamer streaming-media
framework.

GStreamer 0.1.0 is the result of over a year of development by
an international group of open source developers aspiring to build
the ultimate streaming media framework. Although not yet completed,
this release already boasts many impressive features and
capabilities including a streamlined core library, an intelligent
autoplugging architecture, extensive developer’s tools, and a large
plugin library. With all of the features listed below, GStreamer
promises to be the leading architecture for streaming media. This
intelligent pipeline opens new doors in bringing the latest in
audio and video applications to the Linux desktop.”
