# parole

Parole is a modern simple media player based on the GStreamer framework and 
written to fit well in the Xfce desktop. Parole features playback of local 
media files, DVD/CD and live streams.

Parole is extensible via plugins, for a complete how-to on writing a plugin for
Parole, see the Plugins API documentation and the plugins directory which 
contains some useful examples.
