I commented some time ago that 0.8/gst-ffmpeg should just go away... (Along with X but that's another subject). It just doesn't fit in the trend of multimedia FOSS anymore... Not that xbmc or vlc are ready for ffmpeg to go away... Sigh. Libpostproc is also an orphan in libav world, no activity since 2012. Schisms suck. But we seem to be committed to the libav bus, so keep calm and ride on.
