Hi GPAC-fans,
The GPAC team is proud to say that GPAC is the Open Source project under the spot lights on the web site of the Special Interest Group on Multimedia (SIGMM) of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). If you don’t know how GPAC is used, especially in the research community, have a look.
Release 0.5.0 of GPAC is finally out, with many new features and bug fixes, including:
– MPEG-DASH and HLS support (players and MP4Box)
– MPEG-U Widgets and UPnP support in the player
– Stereo and multiview display support
– Better AVC and SVC support including OpenSVC decoder integration
– More live tools: RTP, MPEG-TS, T-DMB support, scene encoders (BIFS and RME/DIMS)
– iOS and Android support
– and many other good things
