Hi all,
I've added automatic installation of gstreamer to 3rd party installation
scripts, using only system tools (yum/apt-get/port, no compilation from
sources). This way we are getting available precompiled versions of gstreamer
and it's plugins from public repositories, which are different for different
platforms:
Ubuntu 10.04 Ubuntu 12.04 CentOS 5.x CentOS
6.x Mac OS X 10.7
gstreamer (as below) (as below) 0.10.20 0.10.29
0.10.36
gstreamer-tools 0.10.28 0.10.36 0.10.20 0.10.29
(as above)
gst-plugins-base 0.10.28 0.10.36 0.10.20 0.10.29
0.10.36
gst-plugins-good 0.10.21 0.10.31 0.10.9 0.10.23
0.10.31
gst-plugins-bad 0.10.18 0.10.22 0.10.8 0.10.19
0.10.23
gst-plugins-ugly 0.10.14 0.10.18 0.10.11 0.10.16
0.10.19
gst-ffmpeg 0.10.10 0.10.13 0.10.6 0.10.11
0.10.13
It seems that gstreamer available for CentOS 5.x is the worst of all - it
doesn't even have x264enc, so it might be unusable.
Please bear in mind the minimum available versions and functionality on all
other platforms when using gstreamer in Matterhorn to remain platform
independent.
The other possibility - compilation from the same sources on all supported
platforms requires quite an effort (because of dependencies and additional
libraries) and it also complicates system management for administrators.
