Original commit message from CVS: libXv is now linked against by test/* and gstplay if it is present. -lXv isn't leaked all over the place due to AC_CHECK_LIB test. This is still messy though - we shouldn't have to link explicitly with extra things just because we use certain plugins. Build Makefile in tests, but don't recurse into tests when doing the build (tests no longer in SUBDIRS).
This is gnome-streamer, a framework for streaming media in GNOME. The fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectMedia. It's based on plug-ins that will provide the various codec and other functionality. The interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple) to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and release the source.
