|
||
video encoders and decoders which have been the standard on embedded Linux for quite some time now.

The GStreamer Rust bindings are released separately with a different release cadence that’s tied to gtk-rs, but the latest
|
||
release has already been updated for the new GStreamer 1.24 API.
|
||
|
||
gst-plugins-rs, the module containing GStreamer plugins written in Rust, has also seen lots of activity with many new elements
|
||
and plugins
|
||
|
||
- Rust plugins can be used from any programming language. To the outside they look just like a plugin written in C or C++.

Stable 1.24 branch
|
||
|
||
After the 1.24.0 release there will be several 1.24.x bug-fix releases which will contain bug fixes which have been deemed
|
||
suitable for a stable branch, but no new features or intrusive changes will be added to a bug-fix release usually. The 1.24.x
|
||
bug-fix releases will be made from the git 1.24 branch, which will be a stable branch.
|
||
|
||
1.24.0
|
||
|
||
1.24.0 has not yet been released.
|
||
|
||
Schedule for 1.26
|
||
|
||
Our next major feature release will be 1.26, and 1.25 will be the unstable development version leading up to the stable 1.26
|
||
release. The development of 1.25/1.25 will happen in the git main branch of the GStreamer mono repository.
|
||
|
||
The schedule for 1.26 is yet to be confirmed. We’re still busy getting 1.24 out!
|
||
|
||
1.26 will be backwards-compatible to the stable 1.24, 1.22, 1.20, 1.18, 1.16, 1.14, 1.12, 1.10, 1.8, 1.6, 1.4, 1.2 and 1.0
|
||
release series.
