-This is GStreamer Good Plug-ins 0.10.23, "Stylish Kids in Riot"
+This is GStreamer Good Plug-ins 0.10.24, "Taking Liberties"
+
+Changes since 0.10.23:
+
+      * Use Orc (Optimized Inner Loops Runtime Compiler) for SIMD and
+        other optimisations, and remove liboil dependency. The main goal
+        for this release was to make the transition from liboil to liborc.
+        Performance improvements should not be expected and will be the
+        focus of future versions. liborc is an optional dependency for
+        the time being, to make it possible to test and develop the very
+        latest GStreamer versions on systems that don't have orc yet.
+        However, without orc slow unoptimised backup code will be used
+        for many performance critical code paths. Distributors are urged
+        to package and ship the latest version of liborc and compile
+        GStreamer modules with --enable-orc. Please do not distribute
+        GStreamer packages that are not orc enabled. More information on
+        the orc integration can be found in the docs/design/ directory.
+      * alpha: add "prefer-passthrough" property to allow passthrough mode

+      * flvmux: add "streamable" property

+      * rtph264pay: handle short startcodes in the h264 bytestream
+      * rtpjitterbuffer: stop buffering and emit EOS at the end of a stream
+      * rtpmparobustdepay: add mpa-robust depayloader
+      * rtpmp4gdepay: calculate the frame duration correctly
+      * rtptheorapay: keep announcing the delivery-method in the capabilities, restores
+        compatibility with older farsight versions again
+      * rtspsrc: respect aggregate control attributes; try all ranges from the sdp
+      * spectrum: support 24-bit width and arbitrary bit depth
+      * udp: make url parsing compatible with VLC syntax
+      * udpsrc: fix multicast support on windows
+      * v4l2sink: destroy buffer pool when changing state to NULL
+      * videobox: fix negotiation for I420/YV12
+      * videomixer: don't mix input with different pixel aspect ratios; negotiation fixes
+      * wavparse: proper closing segment construction when doing non-flushing seeks
+      * wavparse: use typefind functions to check if PCM data contains dts stream
