Clip and Transition monitor are developed in-house by J-B-M using SDL right?

What about reusing some more established video player like Noatumn, or KMPlayer, KPlayer, Kaffeine as a monitor component.

Some implements KDE KPart interface let's utilize it.

This could make development more efficient, less work in this area for JBM.

CM seems to be easy.

I don't know how data are pushed for TM, some kind of raw video pipe?
