Hello it's not that I want to rush up , but I have to do it.

We are currently in application development using gstreamer. The current base
image of stb is still using the very old gstreamer-0.1.xx

And we come to a point now with a full new image named pli50. It does have the
so what last lib's and projects avbl. Does use gcc-5.xx quit up to date by use
off libc and... The linux kernel is depended on the stb manufacturers since it
also included the closed source drivers and acces to the protected codecs. One
off our major problems is gstreamer. It's anyway needed for our customized
dvbmediasink . But the change over from 0.1xx to 1.xx did caused in first place
severe regression into media support. 

Ok we came to gst-1.4.5 that was the first version without severe regression
and even a couple off nice benefits for us. All our code (especially the
costumed mediasink's ) was adapted to that.

Then came 1.5.1 in general better but some new regressions in media support.

After 1.5.1 perhaps some new extra support was there , but in general stability
and support it was a regression this up to and including 1.7.0 . Then with
1.7.1
It's a extreme high improvement again. and all versions above the tagged 1.7.1
where each time a serious improvement until the commit: 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/commit/?id=844aa3e6a954e76b68f0f0e6e5d829047b2d9f68

It's like we jumped again into darkness the result in media support is dropped
again to even below the one using very old gst-0.1xx (which is modified with
ton's off patches). 

Ok it's not easy and very tricky the caps issue but why commit for a
improvement in totem and brake all other users by it ?
