RELEASE: GStreamer Core and Plugins 1.0.7

Sebastian Dröge — 2013-04-26T12:23:38

The GStreamer project announces another bug-fix release for the new
API and ABI-stable 1.x series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.

The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. It is not API
or ABI compatible with the 0.10.x series. It can, however, be installed
in parallel with the 0.10.x series and will not affect an existing
0.10.x installation.


Changes in gstreamer core since 1.0.6:

      * Add better support for static plugins

Bugs fixed in gstreamer core since 1.0.6:

      * 667305 : build: Add --enable-static-plugins configure argument
      * 696357 : Basesrc may send not-neg error when flushed
      * 696435 : gst_static_caps_get(GST_STATIC_CAPS_NONE) doesn't work properly
      * 697791 : gst-inspect: shows action signal return pointers as pointers

Changes in gst-plugins-base since 1.0.6:

      * streamsynchronizer is now a public element, useful in HLS pipelines for example

Bugs fixed in gst-plugins-base since 1.0.6:

      * 682171 : videoscale: assertion failed: (envelo

Biggest Fake Conference in Computer Science

2013-04-12T17:40:28

We are researchers from different parts of the world and conducted a study on  
the world’s biggest bogus computer science conference WORLDCOMP 
( http://sites.google.com/site/worlddump1 ) organized by Prof. Hamid Arabnia 
from University of Georgia, USA.


We submitted a fake paper to WORLDCOMP 2011 and again (the 
same paper with a modified title) to WORLDCOMP 2012. This paper 
had numerous fundamental mistakes. Sample statements from 
that paper include: 

(1). Binary logic is fuzzy logic and vice versa
(2). Pascal developed fuzzy logic
(3). Object oriented languages do not exhibit any polymorphism or inheritance
(4). TCP and IP are synonyms and are part of OSI model 
(5). Distributed systems deal with only one computer
(6). Laptop is an example for a super computer
(7). Operating system is an example for computer hardware


Also, our paper did not express any conceptual meaning.  However, it 
was accepted both the times without any modifications (and without 
any reviews) and we were invited to submit

Re: Trying to install Esound on Linux Zorin

erwin — 2013-01-17T15:58:39

Hya Gerry,

I am not 100% sure what is causing the problem but have you tried 
running a general update through the terminal ??
Computer< at >me: sudo apt-get update
Computer< at >me: sudo apt-get upgrade
Should do the trick.
If this does not solve it, try the synpatic package manager search for 
audiofile, get the latest addition and click on apply.
That should solve it.

If both would not solve your problems, than I have no clue what you can do,

Erwin

Trying to install Esound on Linux Zorin

Gerry Ross — 2013-01-17T15:07:02

Hi,
I have recently migrated to Linux Zorin from MS Windows. I am now using 
the Thunderbird email client, but can not get Thunderbird to output any 
sound. A Google search seem to indicate that I need to install 'Esound', 
but I can not get Esound to install. I have attached a copy of the 
Terminal log. What do I need to do to install Esound?

Regards,

Nobody uses esound anymore. It's a horrible and broken piece of code.
Checkout PulseAudio if you need to export the sound remotely instead.

What is Rygel?

Rygel is a home media solution that allows you to easily share audio, video and
pictures, and control of media player on your home network. In technical terms
it is both a UPnP AV MediaServer and MediaRenderer implemented through a plug-in
mechanism. Interoperability with other devices in the market is achieved by
conformance to very strict requirements of DLNA and on the fly conversion of
media to format that client devices are capable of handling.
