# 10/09/2020: GPAC 1.0.1
This release fixes build and installation issues in 1.0.0, as well as various bugs introduced during the migration to the filters architecture.
It also adds several small features:
- better ttml import
- better support for MPEGH audio
- support fur DASH UTCTiming
- manifest generation from pre-fragmented DASH/HLS mp4
- speed optimization in isobmf reading (normal and fragmented)

# 16/06/2020: GPAC 1.0
- Complete rewrite of GPAC streaming core:
* addition of a filter-based architecture, used by MP4Client and MP4Box.
* moving all decoders and demuxer plugins of MP4Client and most of MP4Box import/export code as filters for this new architecture,
* moving DASH/HLS segmenter to a filter
* moving MP4Client compositor and most of the GF_Terminal internals to a filter
* addition of a new application gpac, whose only purpose is to create and run filter chains
* removal of MP42TS and DashCast applications since these functionalities are provided by gpac
* deprecation of some features (widget management, MSE draft implementation for SVG media, UPnP, TEMI player support).
- Profile system allowing to override through a static file default options of all filters and libgpac core
- Alias system for gpac app to simplify your command lines
- Enhanced DASHer:
* Support for HLS and dual HLS / DASH generation
* Support for any input
* True low-latency mode for DASH
* Support for multiple periods
* Support for other segment formats (raw, mkv, webm currently tested)
- Input and outputs
* Generic pipe, TCP, UDP, and Unix Domain socket input and output
* RTSP server output
* HTTP output (client and server), supporting low latency DASH access
* Ad-hoc stream format called GSF to allow serialization to file, pipe or socket of a session (for distributed filter chains), supporting AES-128 CBC encryption.
- Raw audio (PCM) and video (RGB, YUV) reframers and exporters
- HEVC tile spliting and merging filters
- Compositor is a standalone filter (SVG/BIFS/VRML graphics in a filter chain)
- Image encoding support through libjpg and libpng
- Full FFMPEG support:
* Encoding/decoding through FFMPEG libavcodec
* Multiplexing/demultiplexing through FFMPEG libavformat

- Support for MediaAccessEvent (spec still under development ??)
- Added support for user extensions (global class only) in JS through modules - cf gpac_js for sample code.

* RTP hinting /playback is not supported yet
- Support for SVG foreignObject - all GPAC supported content can be played in a foreign object
- Added automatic switch between 2D and 3D context for VRML/BIFS Inline node
- Basic support for DCCI queries:
* the DCCI object is exposed in scripts as 'DCCIRoot'
* the related document can be specified in GPAC configuration file in the [General] section with the 'EnvironmentFile' key
pointing to an XML file to use as the ontology context
* DCCI's propertyFilters are NOT supported yet.

- Changed 3D mesh object to be slightly more compact (colors and normal)
- Unified focus model for SVG and MPEG-4. MPEG-4 focus can only be used through tab/-tab (no north/east/.. navigation)
* The MPEG-4 focus is based on the groups (2D/3D) presenting interactive features (sensors)
* keyboard mapping for sensors is:
isOver triggered when focus moves in(isOver=TRUE) and out (isOver=FALSE)
isActive triggered when ENTER key is pressed (isActive=TRUE) and released (isActive=TRUE)
direction keys with or without SHIFT to simulate mouse move
* Layout node is considered as a sensor when scroll_rate is 0, so that the user can scroll the layout

- iTune tagging support, (patch from Andrew Voznytsa with slight modif). Tagging can be done with MP4Box -itags option. The tags are passed in a single string, separated by ':', formatted as 'tag_name=tag_value'. Supported tags names are: album, artist, comment, compilation, composer, created, disk, encoder, genre, name, tempo, track, tracknum, writer.
NOTE: to make sure you mp4 is importable on an iPod, you must:
- use .m4a extension
- specify the right brands: MP4Box -brand "M4A " -ab mp42
This process is automated in MP4Box for all file with extension .m4a
- added MPEG-1/2 raw importing (extensions: .m1v and .m2v).

program-based import for MPEG-2 TS streams (MP4Box -add file.ts#program=ProgName).
- initial IPV6 support
- MP42AVI is now deprecated. MP4Client can now be used to produce uncompressed bmp/raw/AVI, dumping the complete presentattion rather than just BIFS scenes (audio is currently not extracted). Usage:
MP4Client -bmp 1-2.5-3 file.mp4 take screenshots of file.mp4 aty T=1, 2.5 and 3 seconds
MP4Client -avi -fps 15.0 -size 176x144 file.mp4 produces an uncompressed AVI of resolution 176x144, framerate 15
MP4Client -avi 4-10 file.mp4 produces an uncompressed AVI of the scene between 4 and 10 seconds
Check MP4Client man page for more details.

- moved all language handling to both ISO 639-1 (2 char code) and 639-2 (3 char code), as 639-1 is used in SVG.
- removed old XML parser, all parsing now relies on a new GPAC SAX parser (avoid dependency on libxml when unneeded).
- support for progressive loading support for XMT and X3D files.
- new svg_in module using gpac sax parser (supports progressive loading too)
- cf configuration.html or man gpac for more info on progressive loading control
- added 'define' support in BT - to use it just do:
#define symbol blab labl a
and reuse the symbol in the BT text. This may be quite buggy, but it can be usefull
- support for Scene Carousel in hinters, core and rtp reassembler. Currently only BIFS and BIFS+AV can be use the scene carousel, carouseling of
static data (eg images) is not supported. The OD data must be embedded in the IOD a la ISMA.

# 28/07/05: GPAC 0.4.0 release
** GPAC is now licensed under LGPL. **
Massive code rewrite and repository reorganization in order to comply to some base coding style (cf gpac/doc/CODING_STYLE) have taken place
since previous release. Documentation is still a work in progress.
APIs are not backward compatible, but should now be in a frozen state/spelling for the most common tools (utils, MPEG-4 OD, IsoMedia and terminal APIs)

support both multichannel and AAC radios.

- more work on x11 plugin (events handling, 3D support) - THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL AT THIS RELEASE LEVEL, CHECKOUT CVS FOR BETTER SUPPORT...
- fixed anamorphic video handling in GPAC, both playing (2D and 3D) and MP4Box parsers (only done for MPEG-4 Visual, not AVC). Video is
now only rescaled at blit time

Documentation will only be produced for libgpac, eg all exported headers in gpac/include/gpac
Development APIs documentation (gpac/include/gpac/internal) will come later.
- cleaned up IsoMedia reading for more efficient and more reliable parsing
- misc fixes in MP4Box option parsing, in RTP multicast setup

The current syntax is to put needed headers in the MPEG-4 DecoderSpecificInfo, with the following syntax:
u16 sizeof_header;
char *header_data;
for each header (quite similar to what is found in qtcomponents). Vorbis ObjectTypeIndication is 0xDE, theora ObjectTypeIndication is 0xDF.
Need some more testing before filing a request to mp4ra.org.
Streaming possible as MPEG-4 streams, Vorbis RTP packetizer still to be done.
