New in Gmerlin 1.0.0 (Jan 10, 2011)

  • This release brings support for compressed streams in the transcoder, configuration presets and lots of minor improvements and fixes.

New in Gmerlin 0.4.2 (Feb 25, 2010)

  • Great player simplification. Most changes are internal, but the user should notice much faster seeking. Also the GUI player now updates the video window while the seek-slider is moved.
  • Simplification of the plugin configuration: In many places, where we had an extra dialog for configuring plugins, it was merged with the rest of the configuration.
  • A new recorder application which records audio (with OSS, Pulseaudio, Alsa and ESound) and video (with V4L1, V4L2 or the new X11 grabber). Output can be written into files or broadcasted.
  • A new encoding frontend (used by the recorder and transcoder), which allows more consistant and unified configuration of encoding setups.
  • The video window of the GUI player has now a gmerlin icon and is grouped together with the other windows.
  • Like always: Tons of fixes, optimizations and smaller cleanups
