RELEASE: GStreamer Core and Plugins 1.2.0

[Gazoo]

Hey Sebastian and LRN,

Thank you both for responding and curing me of further ignorance. There 
are just a few things I'm still hazy about, so I hoping you won't mind 
helping my understanding a bit more.

As as I see it - my current predicament is that I'd like to use 
GStreamer to stream a small video file on to a texture in OpenGL. 
Gstreamer already has some awesome source code (in the form of 
filters/sinks) that accomplish exactly that. Here come the parts I'm 
still unsure if I'm clear on...

1) But the specific source code that does this is not present in the 
currently available Win32 compiled release of GStreamer, correct? 
Although a lot of other plugins are - but the GL based plugins have 
perhaps just recently been completed/ or is too esoteric to include in a 
build available for all?

2) Although I really only need to compile the GL based plugins - seeing 
as the rest of Gstreamer comes pre-compiled, it's perhaps easiest to 
recompile the whole thing including the plugins because...? I'm not sure 
why... Perhaps the documentation for compiling it all from the bottom 
applies to the SDK as a whole and is therefore easier to follow?

3) Finally, I guess this only applies to LRN - you mentioned Sbuild. 
Seems nice, but if I understand the system correctly, it eases building 
stuff it's pre-configured for? However, I couldn't spot the GL plugins 
being mentioned in the pre-configurations, so I'd also be trying to get 
that to work I'm guessing?

Thanks!
Gazoo
