gstreamer - Query regarding compatibility of plugins and gstreamer version.

[Jayanth K.P]

Hi,

I have a query regarding compatibility of plugins and gstreamer
version.

We have a SDK containing gstreamer and plugins-base of version 0.10.19.
Based on this version, there are some custom pre-built plugins
released in the SDK.
Now I want to build an application using latest decodebin2  (picked from
gst-plugins-base-0.10.32).

Let me know if there would be any version incompatibility issues. Is it
fine to take the decodebin2 from the latest version and package it with
the 0.10.19 base.

How can my application be packaged?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Jayanth

You will definitely need to update your gstreamer and gst-plugins-base
to the current versions.

Plugins in gst-plugins-base in general require the same (or later)
versions of both gst-plugins-base and core gstreamer.

Given how old 0.10.19 is, I don't think backporting the needed changes
to that version would be in any sense practical or desirable, either.

Hi Mile,

Thanks for quick response, it was very useful.

Does this mean that if we upgrade the gstreamer core and
gstreamer-plugins-base to the latest (0.10.32),
,we can use the older good and bad plugins ?

Specifically, Is this combination fine with the latest (0.10.32) core
and plugins-base.

gstreamer core                     - 0.10.32
gstreamer-plugins-base             - 0.10.32
pre-built gstreamer-good-plugins   - 0.10.14  (Built with older header files)
pre-built gstreamer-bad-plugins    - 0.10.10  (Build with older header files)
pre-built custome plugins          - Built with older header files
My new plugins using decodebin2    - Using the newer header files.

Regrads,
Jayanth

In general that SHOULD work, but is almost certainly totally untested.
I would strongly recommend upgrading everything; you'll get many,
many, many fixes to all those other plugins.
