Oxelon Media Converter on Windows uses ffmpeg. It used to be a great media converter, but it now crashes everytime. Oh well.
I'm glad to see this and gstreamer having stable releases.

Awesome, this is quite impeccable timing! I was just wondering about when they are going to release a new version. Didn't expect it to be a 1.0, though. Once this gets published and picked up by Packman developers, I will be able to get rid of a custom-compiled version of it I have sitting in my /opt, as there is one critical performance fix in later commits that allows for recording PulseAudio and video streams at the same time without dropping frames. Good job, FFmpeg devs!
It was an interesting read there, Teho. It looks like libav developers hit the same problem that they tried to avoid in the first place... But at least the competition allows for the betterment of FFmpeg. They should become more separate indeed, to have more than just a name and attitude difference.

The ffmpeg package in Debian (and therefore Ubuntu) is actually a concealed libav library, because the package maintainer took libav's side during the feud. None of the other major distributions made libav default, the "program is deprecated" message is just a childish FUD from the libav devs.

I tried libav some months ago on Gentoo but was still running into a lot of problems since some apps absolutely seemed to depend on ffmpeg but I couldn't have both on my system.
