buzztard project status 01/08/2005

work, work, work ...

nearly forgot to send the monthly news ;)

Point one. I've got the whole buzztard app ported to use the GstController subsystem. This mean timing is very tight and we can do subtick smoothing (soft fading between pattern values).
On the other hand using the GstController requires all plugins to understand seeking and stuff. So there is more work to do. This lead to one decision:

We now port everything to Gstreamer 0.9

The 'old' Gstreamer has not the potential to do all we need and new development is mainly happening in the new version. E.g. out GstController module is now part of the Gstreamer libs. Porting the application seems to be not that tricky. Unfortunately porting the plugin really is :(

Anyway I am optimistic and hope to tell about positive result with the next news update.

Have fun,
