With GStreamer 1.12’s first release candidate out for testing and the final release expected soon, here’s a preview of some of the (many) new features that will be arriving with this release, notably support for the EGL extension used by the i.MX6 Vivante proprietary driver, support for waylandsink DMABuf importation (which means you can get zerocopy media display under Wayland) and support for the Fraunhofer FDK AAC encoder and decoder.
