Is that false? Well it's true. But gstreamer is very well written and Tim's KDE bindings already kick major ass. The GStreamer guys expressed many, many times over that will do anything we want to help us adopt GStreamer in KDE. It's a fairly mature framework, with capabilities exceeding anything we have. I think that GStreamer and Tim's bindings are the way to go.
