-   The default plugin entry point has changed. This will only affect
    plugins that are recompiled against new GStreamer headers. Binary
    plugins using the old entry point will continue to work. However,
    plugins that are recompiled must have matching plugin names in
    GST_PLUGIN_DEFINE and filenames, as the plugin entry point for
    shared plugins is now deduced from the plugin filename. This means
    you can no longer have a plugin called foo living in a file called
    libfoobar.so or such, the plugin filename needs to match. This might
    cause problems with some external third party plugin modules when
    they get rebuilt against GStreamer 1.14.


Note to packagers and distributors

A number of libraries, APIs and plugins moved between modules and/or
libraries in different modules between version 1.12.x and 1.14.x, see
the _Plugin and_ _library moves_ section above. Some APIs have seen
minor ABI changes in the course of moving them into the stable APIs
section.

This means that you should try to ensure that all major GStreamer
modules are synced to the same major version (1.12 or 1.13/1.14) and can
only be upgraded in lockstep, so that your users never end up with a mix
of major versions on their system at the same time, as this may cause
breakages.

Also, plugins compiled against >= 1.14 headers will not load with
GStreamer <= 1.12 owing to a new plugin entry point (but plugin binaries
built against older GStreamer versions will continue to load with newer
versions of GStreamer of course).

There is also a small structure size related ABI breakage introduced in
the gst-plugins-bad codecparsers library between version 1.13.90 and
1.13.91. This should “only” affect gstreamer-vaapi, so anyone who ships
the release candidates is advised to upgrade those two modules at the
same time.
Platform-specific improvements
-   ahcsrc (Android camera source) does autofocus now
-   no major changes in macOS and iOS support, only bugfixes
-   The GStreamer wasapi plugin was rewritten and should not only be
    usable now, but in top shape and suitable for low-latency use cases.
    The Windows Audio Session API (WASAPI) is Microsoft’s most modern
    method for talking with audio devices, and now that the wasapi
    plugin is up to scratch it is preferred over the directsound plugin.
    The ranks of the wasapisink and wasapisrc elements have been updated
    to reflect this. Further improvements include:

    -   support for more than 2 channels
    -   a new "low-latency" property to enable low-latency operation
        (which should always be safe to enable)
    -   support for the AudioClient3 API which is only available on
        Windows 10: in wasapisink this will be used automatically if
        available; in wasapisrc it will have to be enabled explicitly
        via the "use-audioclient3" property, as capturing audio with low
        latency and without glitches seems to require setting the
        realtime priority of the entire pipeline to “critical”, which
        cannot be done from inside the element, but has to be done in
        the application.
    -   set realtime thread priority to avoid glitches
    -   allow opening devices in exclusive mode, which provides much
        lower latency compared to shared mode where WASAPI’s engine
        period is 10ms. This can be activated via the "exclusive"
        property.
    -   Also see Nirbheek’s blog post _Low Latency Audio on Windows with
        GStreamer_.
-   There are now GstDeviceProvider implementations for the wasapi and
    directsound plugins, so it’s now possible to discover both audio
    sources and audio sinks on Windows via the GstDeviceMonitor API

-   debug log timestamps are now higher granularity owing to
    g_get_monotonic_time() now being used as fallback in
    gst_utils_get_timestamp(). Before that, there would sometimes be
    10-20 lines of debug log output sporting the same timestamp.

Bugs fixed in 1.14
More than 800 bugs have been fixed during the development of 1.14.

This list does not include issues that have been cherry-picked into the
stable 1.12 branch and fixed there as well, all fixes that ended up in
the 1.12 branch are also included in 1.14.

This list also does not include issues that have been fixed without a
bug report in bugzilla, so the actual number of fixes is much higher.
Stable 1.14 branch
After the 1.14.0 release there will be several 1.14.x bug-fix releases
which will contain bug fixes which have been deemed suitable for a
stable branch, but no new features or intrusive changes will be added to
a bug-fix release usually. The 1.14.x bug-fix releases will be made from
the git 1.14 branch, which is a stable branch.
1.14.0 was released on 19 March 2018.

Known Issues
-   The webrtcdsp element (which is unrelated to the newly-landed
    GStreamer webrtc support) is currently not shipped as part of the
    Windows binary packages due to a build system issue.
-   The gst-libav module in 1.14 will only build against older ffmpeg
    3.x versions and won’t build against the newly-released ffmpeg 4.0
    (as in RPM Fusion for Fedora 28) due to API changes. Use the
    internal ffmpeg copy instead if you build using autotools. This is
    fixed in git master / upcoming 1.16, but won’t be backported to the
    1.14 branch as it is rather intrusive and difficult to support both
    old and new APIs at the same time.
Schedule for 1.16
Our next major feature release will be 1.16, and 1.15 will be the
unstable development version leading up to the stable 1.16 release. The
development of 1.15/1.16 will happen in the git master branch.
The plan for the 1.16 development cycle is yet to be confirmed, but it
is expected that feature freeze will be around September 2018 followed
by several 1.15 pre-releases and the new 1.16 stable release in October.
1.16 will be backwards-compatible to the stable 1.14, 1.12, 1.10, 1.8,
1.6, 1.4, 1.2 and 1.0 release series.
