The Fluendo Beta Test Program announces that Solaris beta plugins
for WMA decoding, WMV decoding, RTP, MMS, asf, and Win-RTP are available
in package format. Note forwarded email below from Christian Schaller
for details. Contact Christian if you'ld like to request being a part
of the beta program and helping with testing. These plugins work with
all GStreamer enabled programs (rhythmbox, totem, gnome-sound-recorder).
They also have Linux versions of ASF, MP2video, MP4video available for
Linux and probably will have them available for Solaris as well. They
should be for sale at a reasonable per-unit price on their website at
some point in the near future.

Currently they just have a MP3 decoder plugin for OpenSolaris users
since Sun does not ship this plugin for OpenSolaris.

Subject: [Fluendo-beta] Solaris beta plugins and new RTP plugin

Hi everyone,
Ok, I added a full set of Windows Media plugins for Solaris x86 and
SPARC plugins to the beta program today. These plugins comes packaged as
Solaris packages. A big thanks to Brian Cameron and Jerry Tan at Sun for
helping me create and test these.
I also added our Windows Media RTP plugin for both Linux and Solaris
systems. This plugin works fine, but there is a little more work needed
in playbin to make it work perfectly by default, so for now if you want
to test be sure to read the INSTRUCTIONS.txt file. (I renamed all the
README files to INSTRUCTIONS.txt).
For linux users there are also new versions of all the Windows Media
plugins. Mostly some potential crashers fixed and also some general code
cleanups. A new feature though is support for things like reverse
playback. Unfortunatly the only application supporting this is the
'scrubby' test application in GStreamer CVS. But we hope to enable
support for this in newer versions of Elisa soon.
We are also working on making sure we can support older versions of
GStreamer with these plugins. 0.10.3 is our oldest target currently.
Only plugin which we know will need a newer version of GStreamer is the
RTP one which needs 0.10.10 to work at all and will only work perfectly
with 0.10.11.
You find the plugins as always at:
