What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Major changes to the plugin mechanism now allow out-of-process plugins full random access to the entire file.
· Most plugins have been rewritten to the new plugin API.
· The external (libextractor) API remains unchanged and compatible with 0.6.
· As part of the rewrite, many plugins were changed to use standard 3rd party libraries (libjpeg, libtiff, libgif, libtidy, and libmagic) for parsing.
· A new plugin based on gstreamer replaces many existing multimedia plugins.
· Automated test cases for (almost all) of the plugins were also written, and the documentation was updated.
