Hello, I would like to raise a question on the desktop-side: belated migration to Gstreamer 1.0. While it "just works", the old API has been deprecated for a while and with the coming modernization with MATE 1.14 this is time to think about it.
Several remarks from my reading and trials: - Gstreamer 0.10 and 1.0 are not exclusive and can be installed together so smooth transition is possible if we want it. - SunAudio plugin does not build against 1.0 as the entire mixer interface was dropped and not replaced. - Gstreamer 1.0 may not be necessarily 32bit friendly out of the box in the future as compiled Gstreamer 1.0 + plugins show integer overflow on my machine: how about moving to 64bit ? - Enlightenment does not support 0.10 anymore. The questions are: - when should we schedule the migration to 1.0 ? before MATE or together with ? - should this come with moving to 64bit for multimedia applications ? I would see something like: - update pulseaudio to 8.0, - update gstreamer to 1.0, - base the MATE testing on that. Best regards Aurelien -- --- Praise the Caffeine embeddings
