Original commit message from CVS: Added the bufferpool handler. This object is able to generate buffers and is passed between elements to exchange buffers. Elements can also use this pool to efficiently generate output buffers.
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 DirectX. 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.
