Written by Michael Larabel in GNOME on 25 September 2015 at 07:31 PM EDT. 4 Comments

We've been looking forward to GStreamer 1.6 and now it's been released.

GStreamer 1.6 brings Stereoscopic 3D and multi-view video support, V4L2 improvements, H.265 video encoding/decoding via x265 and libde265, a new OpenGL-based QML video sink, and a huge variety of other improvements. There's a ton of other stuff too with GStreamer 1.6 representing more than one year of development.

More details on GStreamer 1.6 can be found via the release notes and the FreeDesktop.org project site.
