--- Comment #29 from Andrew Eikum aeikum@codeweavers.com --- (In reply to Joel Holdsworth from comment #27)
Hows does gstreamer get around the ffmpeg API instability? Could that method be replicated by Wine?
Alternatively would a gstreamer-based patch be more likely to be accepted? In that case gstreamer would act as an abstraction layer around ffmpeg?
Maybe, though I find gstreamer's API to be a nightmare.
