Re: [campcaster-support] flac support?
  • Hi HeyPedro,

    To make it easy we are running with the audio framework from GStreamer.

    http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/

    GStreamer is supporting already flac, but Campcaster does not, by
    default.

    It's good to know we are in the mood of upgrading GStreamer 08 to 0.10,
    but that takes more time then expected, but it's related to other
    protocols like flac you are talking about.

    If you are willing to support us in this case please let us know.

    Thanks,


    Frans van Berckel

  • Hi Pedro,

    As Frans said, one of the highest priority tasks we are working on now
    is the migration to Gstreamer 0.10. Once that is finished, Campcaster
    will use the Gstreamer library installed on the system (instead of its
    own), so it will be able to play all formats that Totem can. We can't
    give you a firm deadline when this migration will be finished, but I
    would be very surprised if it did not happen by the end of the year.
