GPAC 0.4.2 is finally out. Many new features and improvements since 0.4.2 (check the changelog). Enjoy it!

Important note: this release has been delayed in the hope of having a stable first version of MPEG-4 LASeR, however the v1 standard is still under editing, INCLUDING bitstream syntax. This means that LASeR support in GPAC is completely experimental, encoded scenes will be broken in next release.

This is the final release for 0.4.0. It includes many compilation fixes from first release and, as an extra, a more-or-less stable X11 output for linux users, allowing to embed the video in Osmo4/wx and osmozilla.

Enjoy it as much as I'll enjoy my holidays!
