Livestreamer is a command-line utility that pipes video streams from various
services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of Livestreamer
is to allow the user to avoid buggy and CPU heavy flash plugins but still
be able to enjoy various streamed content.

1.8.1
The first 1.8 bug-fix release (1.8.1) was released on 20 April 2016.
This release only contains bugfixes and it should be safe to update
from 1.8.0.
Major bugfixes in 1.8.1
Fix app compilation with Android NDK r11 and newer
Fix compilation of nvenc plugin against latest NVIDIA SDK 6.0
Fix regression in avdeinterlace
Fix memory corruption in scaletempo element with S16 input
Fix glitches at the start with all audio sinks except for pulsesink
Fix regression with encrypted HLS streams
Fix automatic multithreaded decoding of VP8/9 video
Fix deadlock in HTTP adaptive streams when scrub-seeking
Fix regression in RTSP source with SRTP
Add support for SRTP rollover counters in the RTSP source
Add support for HiDPI ("Retina") screens in caopengllayersink
... and many more!
Prior to this change all USE_TOOLS were already present except "perl". That
blocked the generation of both man pages and HTML documentation.
Also handle the append of configure's --progs-suffix number to address
coexistence of multiple ffmpeg versions man pages (done via patch-doc_Makefile).
Bump PKGREVISION.
Changes
* CMake requirement aligned with libphonon (2.6.2 => 2.8.9)
Bug Fixes
* Fixed finding GStreamer 1.0
* Only build X11 renderer if X11 is found (enables building on OSX
and Windows)
Changes
* VLC 2.0 support was removed, VLC 2.1 is at least required to use the
backend
* CMake requirement aligned with libphonon (2.6.2 => 2.8.9)
* Muting is now implemented asynchronously
Bug Fixes
* Restore build support with Qt <= 5.2 in the Qt 5 build.
* Fixed building videowidget for OSX.
* Fixed schemeless URLs
VLC 2.2 API Pickup
* New device listing API used for listing devices without PulseAudio
enabled
* New internal signals for muting, corking, and volume changes (these
directly relate to new AudioOutputInterface49 API in libphonon providing
these new libvlc features with appropriate frontend control in libphonon)
* This partially improves PulseAudio integration as at least volume and
mute control is now working correctly again via libvlc natively.
PulseAudio Limitations
* PulseAudio support is still not fully backed via libvlc and cannot be
correctly intercepted by libphonon. As a result the following features
continue to not work correctly:
* runtime-device-rerouting: changing the device order in the Phonon
configuration at runtime cannot force libvlc to use the correct
device, if a device was manually set before it will not automatically
migrate to a new device
* runtime-device-selection: selecting a device at runtime is not possible
(see above), as a result applications wanting to do this will get no
result and a warning will be shown. This also means that the
configuration module's Test button does not actually play a sound for
anything but the primary device.
* stream-category: setting a stream category (pulesaudio role) is not
possible, all streams are always category Video
Changes
* Builsystem helpers are now installed to CMAKE_INSTALL_DATAROOTDIR
* CMake 2.8.9 is required to use GNUInstallDirs and for the Qt5 code
branches
* automoc4 support was removed. Building always use the cmake built-in
solution now.
* Qt5 and Qt4 builds use different CMake configurations now
* Qt4 is as it always has been
* Qt5 moved away from crudely ported Qt4 configurations to using
extra-cmake-modules' KDE compiler and cmake flags.
* Installation paths and so forth are still jointly configured as to
retain backwards compatibility (i.e. Qt5 build does not follow ECM's
KDEInstallationPaths)
Bug Fixes
* VolumeSlider has seen async behavior improvements making the slider
not hop around when changing the volume rapidly and the backend is
lagging a bit behind. The volume change now occurs upon slider release
rather than instantly.
* Fixed a duble encoding issue with local paths that contain percent
encoded characters being double-encoded
New API
* New AudioOutputInterface49 for backends to implement. This interface
implements long-existing frontend interfaces for muting, giving the
backend easier access and control.
* setMuted(bool) mutes an AudioOuput (without the 4.9 interface this
is done via setVolume(0.0) on the backend)
* mutedChanged(bool) signal emitted by the backend to asyncronuously
notify of the mute application
* The interface is only used if PulseSupport is not intercepting calls
* New methods to differntiate states of PulseSupport
* request(bool) is used by backends to request PulseAudio usage but no
interception, this essentially enables device listing but lets
everything else fall through to the backend (the existing isActive()
method will not return true after request(true), which makes it
different from enable(true))
* isRequested() is a getter for request()'s state
* isUsable() is part of the previouys isActive() behavior, it is true
iff pulseaudio can be used (daemon running, connected etc)
* isUsed() is a combination of isRequested() and isUsable() (i.e. active
but not intercepting)
* The existing isActive() communicates the same state as before (active
and intercepting) but now also takes requested into consideration
* Enabling always implies requsting automatically, so request(false)
and enable(true) will ultimately still restul in isRequested==true
dependency to options.mk, defaulting to disabled. Both these packages
are marked NO_BIN_ON_* so xine-lib couldn't previously be distributed
in binary package sets.
Bump PKGREVISION.
GStreamer 1.8.0 was released on 24 March 2016.
The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new major feature release
in the stable 1.x API series of your favourite cross-platform
multimedia framework!
As always, this release is again packed with new features, bug fixes
and other improvements.
See https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.8/ for the latest
version of this document.
Highlights
Hardware-accelerated zero-copy video decoding on Android
New video capture source for Android using the android.hardware.Camera
API
Windows Media reverse playback support (ASF/WMV/WMA)
New tracing system provides support for more sophisticated
debugging tools
New high-level GstPlayer playback convenience API
Initial support for the new Vulkan API, see Matthew Waters'
blog post for more details
Improved Opus audio codec support: Support for more than two
channels; MPEG-TS demuxer/muxer can now handle Opus; sample-accurate
encoding/decoding/transmuxing with Ogg, Matroska, ISOBMFF
(Quicktime/MP4), and MPEG-TS as container; new codec utility
functions for Opus header and caps handling in pbutils library.
The Opus encoder/decoder elements were also moved to gst-plugins-base
(from -bad), and the opus RTP depayloader/payloader to -good.
GStreamer VAAPI module now released and maintained as part of
the GStreamer project
Asset proxy support in the GStreamer Editing Services
